Mass Media Reform in China: Toward a New Analytical Framework
Historically, analyses of change in mass media systems have tended to draw upon a ‘dissident vs state’ framework, derived largely from the western historical experience.

In sharp contrast to the structural characteristics implied by the Libertarian model, the U.S. media industry is organized as an elite power group characterized by (a) growing concentration and conglomeration, (b) integration with…
