Cultural Industries in the Free Trade Age
S chramm, W ilbur
Wilbur Schramm is considered a founder of the field of modern communication study. In 1948 he created the first graduate program in mass communication at the University of Illinois, but he also began to establish the discipline with his many early books designated as communication. He was an able administrator and remarkable fund‐raiser who built academic programs at Iowa and Illinois and then at Stanford and the East–West Center in Hawaii over 4…
Saving the world
This far-reaching and long overdue chronicle of communication for development from a leading scholar in the field presents in-depth policy analyses to outline a vision for how communication technologies can impact social change and improve human lives. Drawing on the pioneering works of Daniel Lerner, Everett Rogers, and Wilbur Schramm as well as his own personal experiences in the field, Emile G. McAnany builds a new, historically cognizant para…
Theories and Evidence
We develop four major hypotheses for why mass media might affect fertility. These include economic and time use effects of the medium, effects of ideas on policy actions of members of the elite, general effects on population basic values and fertility—specific cognitions, and effects of deliberate mass media—based interventions on fertility—related behavior. The paper examines correlational and some longitudinal evidence at the cross—national, in…
Telenovela Audiences
Audience studies of popular culture have recently revived in Anglo-America and Latin America, but the literature often makes reference to only a few major works, like those of Katz and Liebes or Morley, and discusses those few works over and over. The most watched television genre globally is probably the Latin American telenovela, or soap opera, that has a dominant presence during prime time in most of the regions' networks. Although many Latin …
From Cultural Imperialists to Takeover Victims
The question some ask about the Hollywood buyouts by major foreign interests is whether ownership changes alter the principal questions posed by the cultural imperialism tradition. From a critical perspective, the answer is no, because the set of underlying problems still remains. This article traces some of the history of the term from its Latin American origins in the 1970s to Europe in the 1980s. A look at more recent writings on the issues of…
News of Latin America on network television, 1972–1981
This study describes Latin American coverage on U.S. network television from 1972 through 1981 and suggests its implications for network newsgathering and U.S. foreign policy toward the region. Latin America received low levels of attention, primarily focused on eight nations. It led other world regions in its proportion of domestic video (usually Washington Bureau) reporting, and over half of direct visual reporting by its correspondents dealt w…
The diffusion of innovation
The appearance in late 1983 of the third edition of Everett Rogers' Diffusion of Innovation (Free Press) is an event that poses some challenging questions for the communication research community. For those who look at research from a critical perspective, it may seem a contradiction that the book is still popular enough 10 merit a third edition; it has, even according to the author, been subject to a number of criticisms from both ciritical and …
Television and crisis
The United States is often seen by Europeans as lacking a sense of its history. If this is true of its own origin, growth and assumption of worldpower in the twentieth century, it is even more true of the understanding of the history of its influence on the development and change of other nations who share its hemisphere, especially
Does Information Really Work
A challenge to assumptions behind communication programs to aid half the world's people living in rural poverty, mostly in the Third World
