Publisher's Synopsis
The Caribbean nations represent great diversity in language, political systems and culture. This book explores the influences of these societies on the domestic and international radio, television, newspaper, music and advertising. The Caribbean states have incorporated mass media into their cultures in many different ways, affecting much of their socio-cultural systems. The key role of the Caribbean islands in American and European politics and culture should make this book interesting reading for those involved in Caribbean studies, including the disciplines of political science, communication, journalism, sociology, anthropology, international relations, cultural philosophy, socio-psychology, literature and the mass media.
