CHINA’S MEDIA IN THE EMERGING WORLD ORDER
Book ID/图书代码: 07869919C00009
English Summary/英文概要: China is challenging the mighty behemoths,
Google and Facebook, and creating alternative
New Media; 750 million people are on its Social
Mediascape and there are a billion mobile
phones deploying the innovative apps with
which Chinese conduct their lives. Though late
starters, already four of the world’s leading New
Media companies are Chinese.
China’s old media − television, newspapers,
radio - compete with the established powers,
long thought unassailable, such as CNN and BBC.
Produced in many languages on every continent,
they are re-defining the agenda and telling the
story China’s way. News and documentary are
being followed by entertainment. The world’s
biggest manufacturer of TV drama is now
making its stories for export.
China’s Media tells you why and how; it
investigates the Chinese media, their strengths
and weaknesses, and how they are different.
Abjuring the customary casual writing off of
China’s media as ‘propaganda’, this book takes
them seriously, explains their immense variety
and diversity and enables us to get a handle on
this new force in the world.
Chinese Summary/中文概要: 中國正在挑戰網路巨頭Google和Facebook,並創造另類新媒體欲將其取而代之,全球有7.5億人口使用中國的社群媒體,且有10部手機裝設了中國製造的應用程序。雖然起步較晚,但已經有四家世界領先的新媒體公司都是中國公司。
而同時,中國的舊媒體,如電視、報紙、廣播 - 也正在挑戰如CNN和BBC等既有的、長期以來一直被認為是無懈可擊的媒體強權,他們在各大洲以多種語言製作,重新定義了議題並講述中國版本的故事,而在新聞報導以外,娛樂業緊跟在後,現在全球最大的電視劇製造商也正在把他們所產製的故事出口到全世界。
本書深入解析中國媒體的來龍去脈、他們的優點和缺點,以及他們與其他國家媒體截然不同之處。本書拒絕僅是將中國媒體視作是「政治宣傳」的尋常言論,而是嚴肅地看待中國媒體,解釋它們的多變性和多樣性,使我們能夠真正理解這股正在席捲世界的新勢力。

"This is a very important book. China is becoming the world’s leading economic power and the cultural counterpart needs to be explained. China is also now one of the leading areas for new platforms and technologies. Through a combination of comparative reflection, detailed examples and analysis, with a fair-minded and balanced approach, the author gives us an excellent tool with which to understand what is happening. It is clearly laid out, filled with good examples, and brings us up to date with a rapidly changing world. China s Media is an excellent, well written and important survey which should be on the shelves of all those interested in China and in the media." (Alan MacFarlane, Professor of Anthropology, University of Cambridge)
"Hugo de Burgh has a deep knowledge of the Chinese media scene, and in this engagingly written book he examines everything from the official print media to TV reality shows to web blogs. He also analyses the cultural underpinnings of the Chinese media, as well as the government s mentality and the ways it exercises controls. De Burgh succeeds admirably in this insightful portrayal of China s media world." (Jonathan Unger, Editor, The China Journal, Professor of Political Science, Australian National University)
