OverviewFocusing on contemporary Asia, this text examines the issues surrounding freedom of the press, new media, citizenship, power and politics. Taking varying approaches to the issue of democracy, the contributors question how democratic and authoritarian governments interact with journalists and media outlets. The chapters explore whether news organizations operate in an autonomous and socially responsible fashion as businesses, as employers and as significant civil society organizations that are often honoured with the titles of being the 'fourth estate' and the 'watchdog of government'. With renowned experts examining a wide range of issues, this book is a welcome addition to the current literature and will be of high interest to students and scholars in political communications, journalism and Asian studies.
