About this book

Drawing on both theoretical and practical case studies, this collection moves from developing attempts at local media to case studies and on to cyber-examples. The contributors, all distinguished international communications scholars, present a range of perspectives on the ever-burgeoning area of grassroots, local media.

'For years, Fuller has been researching community media. Her collection of studies in Community Media draws on top researchers from across the globe to present cutting-edge analyses of what various communities and activists are doing with a wide range of community media. The collection is a valuable research tool that will be of use to all of us involved in community media and social change.' - Douglas Kellner, Graduate School of Education and Information Studies, UCLA
