Communications policy as been a fertile area for testing theories of regulation, subsidy and incentives, free speech, political participation, and the public interest. The capacities of new communications technology have changed markedly since much of the governing legislation in the communications field was written. Such a change is likely to continue and have considerable impact on specific communications sectors and in communications policy. This two volume set of analyses undertakes a review of telecommunications policy in transition--of actions taken and not taken, of goals pursued or ignored, of the adequacy of policy vehicles and their strengths and weaknesses. The authors evaluate three categories of policy problems: those of concept, scope, and judgment in communications policy; those specific to media industries and forces affecting them; and those concerning wider public policy concerns intersecting with communication.

New Directions in Communications Policy is a collection of original essays by some of the nation's most prominent law and economics scholars. The essays address the most topical, controversial, and important communications law and policy topics. In the midst of remarkable technological, marketplace, and regulatory changes, the authors discuss Internet regulation and net neutrality, mass media and broadband policy, the First Amendment and the Fairness Doctrine, universal service subsidies, institutional reform of the FCC, and continuing problems with the implementation of the landmark Telecommunications Act of 1996. In addition to providing the context necessary to understand the topics discussed, every essay contains specific reform recommendations. These forward-looking recommendations comprise a practical guide for policymakers as they struggle to update communications policies to conform to the realities of the digital age. And the essays comprise a rich literature for students exploring the ins-and-outs of communications policy. The contributors, each of whom is nationally recognized as a leading expert on the subject of their essays, are: Gerald Brock; Diane Disney; Richard Epstein; Randolph May; John Mayo; Bruce Owen; Glen Robinson; James Speta; Dennis Weisman; Steven Wildman; and Christopher Yoo.

The field of media and politics is quickly changing as society transforms and new technologies develop continuously. Academic research in the area is rapidly breaking new ground to keep pace with the prolific media developments. This innovative, up-to-date text moves beyond rudimentary concepts and definitions to consider the exciting scholarly research that addresses the monumental recent changes in the media system of the United States and the world. This carefully crafted volume addresses the big questions that academic researchers are asking, exposing students to the rigorous scholarship in the field but making it readily understandable by undergraduate students. Each chapter starts with a "big question" about the impact of the news media, provides an overview of the more general topic, and then answers that question by appealing to the best, most-up-to-date research in the field. The volume as a whole is held together by an exploration of the rapidly changing media environment and the influence these changes have on individual political behavior and governments as a whole. New Directions in Media and Politics will make an ideal book for courses as it digs deeper into the questions that standard textbooks only hint at—and presents scholarly evidence to support the arguments made.

New Directions in Political Communication argues that it is time for political communication research to look beyond the traditional voter persuasion paradigm that has dominated the field and reach out to other contexts and viewpoints. The volume offers analyses of the broad foundations of political communication; examples of a broadened understanding of what kinds of messages should be viewed as `political'; an institutional perspective brough
