Produktbeschreibung

One of the greatest challenges of the new media in recent years and one that will intensify further as world turns to a global village is the potential impacts of New Information and Communication Technologies (NICTs) on form and content of media output,the processes through which media messages are produced and consumed.Such challenges are however, not new,and of course the history of the mass media is a history of technological development with profound social consequences and implications at every stage. And there are strong grounds that contemporary media are undergoing particularly dramatic technologically driven changes, as characterized by media interactivity, accessibility and diversity of information overload with new freedoms for the audience, users, or consumers.It is resolved that this book will be able to:centre and justify the discourse on new media and terrorism and its potential for destruction in a more global context of post-modernism, and also enhance the knowledge of media professionals, media scholars and peace practitioners who will find this research instructive as it is a timely response to the awareness and effects of media globalization.
