Summary:

New Patterns in Global Television focuses upon the development of television industries in some of the countries outside the traditionally dominant centres. It challenges the view that "cultural imperialism" from powerful metropolitan centres dictates the supply of television programs and services in the world. Specialist researchers provide the first comprehensive overview of television production in dynamic "peripheral" regions such as Latin America, India, the Middle East, Greater China, and, in the English-speaking world, Canada and Australia.
