Connect and converge: Australian Media and Communications Law Handbook


Add your own review!

Overview

Connect and Converge: Australian Media and Communications Law is a practical, issues based textbook, which includes reflective teaching materials for students and ready-reference material for practitioners. Unlike existing media law texts that consider each of the 'heads of law' in separate chapters, this book focuses on examining a set of practical issues that arise in the regulation of media and communications. Legal concepts and enforcement and compliance issues are discussed in context so that each chapter begins with a 'nutshell' explanation of the law, followed by illustration of the various issues through case studies, discussion points, real world examples, exercises and think about it sections. This technique enable students to build their knowledge throughout the book in order to critically examine the law's response to social problems in media and communications law.
