Overview

"""The Media in France"" presents a comprehensive overview of the history, and present and future prospects of French media, and considers the successes and failures of French media policy from 1945 to the present day. Raymond Kuhn investigates the history, politics and economics of the press, radio and television, from the days of state monopoly provision to current trends towards deregulation and pluralism, and discusses the importance of the `new media' of cable and satellite broadcasting. Kuhn explores in particular the changing inter-relationship between media and state, as ownership and indirect interference decline while the state remains a key part of the media landscape in its policy making and regulatory roles. This textbook is valuable reading for all students of French, European and media studies."
