The Global Media and the Empire of Liberal Internationalism, Circa 1910–301
This article briefly sketches the rise of the global media system after the mid-1860s before turning to the transformation of that system during the First World War and until the end of the 1920s. In particular, we look at how technological changes, especially the development of wireless and, by late 1926, short-wave radio, were dealt with by the companies that ran the world's vast network of undersea cables, news organizations and governments. W…
Communication and empire
This article focuses on the formation of the `global media system' from 1860 to 1910. It begins with a critique of conventional knowledge in international communication and focuses on three themes: first, the rise of the global media; second, how markets, states and imperialism shaped the global media; and third, how the global media developed as a series of multinational cartels — powerful `private structures of control' through which corporate …
Communication and Empire
Filling in a key chapter in communications history, Dwayne R. Winseck and Robert M. Pike offer an in-depth examination of the rise of the global media between 1860 and 1930. They analyze the connections between the development of a global communication infrastructure, the creation of national telegraph and wireless systems, and news agencies and the content they provided. Conventional histories suggest that the growth of global communications cor…

Globalization and Its Discontents
The Politics of Global Media Reform, 1907–23
In contrast to contemporary discussions of globalization and the rise of the global media that see these as fundamentally new phenomena, recent research suggests that the rise of the global media system can be traced back to a period between, roughly, the 1860s and 1920s. During this era the outlines of a global media system became apparent as a worldwide network of cable communications arose to support international markets, the expansion of glo…
The Politics of Postal Transformation
The postal sector is a multi-billion dollar set of activities that touches billions of lives daily and continues to be one of the world's largest employers. Until recently all Posts were monopolies owned by governments in order to maintain a universal postal service. However, in response to technological and international competition as well as public disenchantment with postal subsidies and inefficiencies, governments have embraced a range of ne…

From "A Cornerstone of Canada's Social Structure" to "Financial Self-Suffiency"
Much of our recent work has been concerned with demonstrating how postal communications and mail-delivered services have been important agencies of national integration and economic development in Canada. To this end, we have attempted to elucidate the social, economic and political forces instrumental in the development of the modern Canadian postal system (Osborne and Goheen 1983; Osborne and Pike 1983, 1984, 1985, 1985a. 1986; Osborne 1985, 19…
