''Power Without Responsibility'' (subtitled: ''The Press and Broadcasting in Britain'' or ''Press, Broadcasting and the Internet in Britain'') is a book written by James Curran (Professor of Communications at Goldsmiths College) and Jean Seaton (Professor of Media History at the University of Westminster). Originally published in 1981 by Fontana, it has been translated into several languages and is now in its seventh edition. The title comes from a quote by former British Prime Minister Stanley Baldwin. It details the history of the news media in the UK from the eighteenth century to the present. It has been cited by Noam Chomsky in the introduction to ''Manufacturing Consent'' and by him in a televised BBC interview with Andrew Marr. Nick Cohen rated it "the best guide to the British media" in a review for the ''New Statesman''. ==Contents (Seventh edition)== Part I - Press history * Whig press history as political mythology * The struggle for a free press * The ugly face of reform * The industrialization of the press * The era of the press barons * The press under public regulation * Fable of market democracy Part II - Broadcasting history * Reith and the denial of politics * Broadcasting and the blitz * Social revolution? * The BBC under threat * Class, taste & profit * How the audience is made * The first new media * Broadcasting roller-coaster Part III - Rise of new media * New media in Britain * History of the internet * Sociology of the internet Part IV - Theories of the media * Metabolising Britishness * Global understanding * The liberal theory of press freedom * Broadcasting and the theory of public service Part V - Politics of the media * Contradictions in media policy * Media reform: democratic choices 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Power Without Responsibility」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
