How should we understand the social impact of new forms of communication and information diffusion, from the advent of printing in fifteenth-century Europe to the expansion of global communication networks today? In this major new work, Thompson addresses these and other questions by elaborating a distinctive social theory of communication media and their impact. He argues that the development of communication media has transformed the spatial and temporal constitution of social life, creating new forms of action and interaction which are no longer linked to the sharing of a common locale. The consequences of this transformation are far-reaching and impinge on many aspects of our lives, from the most intimate aspects of personal experience and self-formation to the changing nature of power and visibility in the public domain. -- Publisher description. 7aMass mediaxSocial aspects.2BUEsh939331 2BUEsh bCOMAMEcNovember2018 vReading book 2ddc b3/22/1997c3/22/1997 b5/9/1996c5/9/1996 00102ddc40708BaccahaMAINbMAINc1STd2018-11-15ePurchaseg850.00l0o302.23 THOp000043974r2025-07-15 00:00:00yNB 00102ddc40708BaccahaMAINbMAINc1STd2018-11-15ePurchaseg850.00l0o302.23 THOp000043975r2025-07-15 00:00:00yBB 00102ddc40708BaccahaMAINbMAINc1STd2018-11-15ePurchaseg850.00l0o302.23 THOp000043976r2025-07-15 00:00:00yBB
