About the Book

Finding the Right Place on the Map is an international comparison of the media systems and democratic performance of the media in post-communist countries. From a comparative east-west perspective, this groundbreaking volume analyzes issues of commercial media, social exclusion, and consumer capitalism. With topics ranging from the civil society approach, public service broadcasting, fandom, and the representation of poverty, each chapter considers a different aspect of the trends and problems surrounding the international media. This volume is an up-to-date overview of what media transformation has meant for post-communist countries in the past two decades.

"This is a remarkably informative collection of essays reviewing the changes since 1989 in media performance, ownership, and relation to the state. The editors are two of the most seasoned and judicious researchers on the region's media, and they have brought together a very impressive team of their peers in the field."
