Globalisation and mass media : the case of publishing in Korea
thesis
posted on 2012-10-08, 12:54 authored by Dong-kyoo SungThis thesis is an attempt to analyse publishing critically, in keeping with
the current preoccupation with the phenomenon of 'globalisation'. The primary
concern of this thesis is to systemise and elaborate a theoretical frame for the
study of international publishing by looking into the following major research
questions.
I. How can we apply the concept of globalisation which has recently dominated
discussion in the social sciences in analysing international publishing?
2. What are the major factors which influence contemporary international
publishing that have resulted in an uneven intellectual structure?
3. As a case study of these issues what is the publishing situation in Korea in
relation to the international publishing scene?
In explicating these three research questions, the thesis combines a
theoretical review with a field study.
