Global Perspectives on Press Regulation, Volume 1
In this ground-breaking two-volume set, world-leading experts produce a rich, authoritative depiction of the world's press, its freedom, and its limits. We want press freedom but we also want freedom from the press. A powerful press may expose a corrupt government or aid it. It may champion citizens or unfairly attack them. A vulnerable press may lack supporters and succumb to conformity. It may resist, and overcome tyranny. According to common belief, press freedom involves social responsibilities to equip public debate and render government transparent. Is this attitude valid given that the press is usually a private, commercial actor? Globally, the health, authority, and viability of the ...
Informed Publics, Media and International Law
This book considers the significance of informed publics from the perspective of international law. It does so by analysing international media law frameworks and the 'mediatization' of international law in institutional settings. This approach exposes the complexity of the interrelationship between international law and the media, but also points to the dangers involved in international law's associated and increasing reliance upon the mediated techniques of communicative capitalism – such as publicity – premised upon an informed international public whose existence many now question. The book explores the ways in which traditional regulatory and analytical categories are increasingly c...
International Media Liability
The liability for the global distribution and dissemination of information (by print, network or interactive media) is increasingly important for practitioners when advising their clients on the differences that exist between jurisdictions. For example, what may pass as freedom of information in one country may fall foul of obscenity or libel law in another. It is also a fast moving area of law reflecting the increasing number of ways to communicate information, for example, the development of the Internet and e-mail. To aid the practitioner in avoiding this minefield of varying and changing laws and regulations, International Media Liability sets out the different laws and practices in a wide selection of countries: Australia, Canada, England and Wales, France, Germany, Japan, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Scotland, Spain, and the United States making it an invaluable source of information and reference.

European and International Media Law
Over the past half century, western democracies have lead efforts to entrench the economic and political values of liberal democracy into the foundations of European and international public order. As this book details, the relationship between the media and the state has been at the heart of those efforts. In that relationship, often framed in constitutional principles, the liberal democratic state has celebrated the liberty to publish information and entertainment content, while also forcefully setting the limits for harmful or offensive expression. It is thus a relationship rooted in the state's need for security, authority, and legitimacy as much as liberalism's powerful arguments for ec...
Media Law in Italy
Derived from the renowned multi-volume International Encyclopaedia of Laws, this analysis of media law in Italy surveys the massively altered and enlarged legal landscape traditionally encompassed in laws pertaining to freedom of expression and regulation of communications. Everywhere, a shift from mass media to mass self-communication has put enormous pressure on traditional law models. An introduction describing the main actors and salient aspects of media markets is followed by in-depth analyses of print media, radio and television broadcasting, the Internet, commercial communications, political advertising, concentration in media markets, and media regulation. Among the topics that arise...
