Commercialization, concentration, convergence, and globalization have dramatically changed the way that media is governed today.

This landmark study offers an overview of media ownership structures in each country as well as analyses of policies, accountability systems, and technological developments in the regions discussed. This book will be an incomparable resource for all students and scholars of European media. Concentrates on analysing and explaining how European countries are slowly conceding control of the media from the government to the market, professional and public forces.
