Rezensionen

"A useful reference tool for academics, policymakers and the media development community. The book is littered with countless specific examples of how journalism has shifted in the region over the last seven years, drawing comparisons with similar experiments in other areas such as Latin America and Eastern Europe. For this reason, it deserves to be read and referenced by media and MENA scholars as well as anyone who has an interest in the changing shape of the media and democracy." (Aida Al-Kaisy, LSE Business Review, blogs.lse.ac.uk, October, 2017)

"This book is a must-read for anyone who is interested in better understanding the complexity, hybridity, and fluidity of both the Arab Spring transitions, as well as the numerous forces and multiple influences which are both shaping, and reflecting, them continuously, such as the equally complex, hybrid, and fluid roles of Arab journalists and mainstream media actors." (Sahar Khamis, Human Rights Centre Blog,hrcessex.wordpress.com, September, 2017)
"El-Issawi's book presents a comprehensive study of the traditional media landscape in the Arab World, outlining its role in the transition that followed the Arab Spring. It brilliantly captures the structural role of media as a major (political) actor in a period of tumultuous transition." (Monica Ibrahim, Middle East Centre Blog, blogs.lse.ac.uk, March, 2017)
