Abstract (may include machine translation)
This volume of essays originally published in the Journal of Communication, examines the far-reaching changes that have occurred in the realm of information, communications media, and public debate in the Soviet Union since Gorbachev began implementing his policies of Glasnost. The fifteen articles address these changes with an eye toward their historical precedent, conflicting responses, and chance for survival. Topics covered include: mass culture and the market; youth culture; glasnost, journalism, and the media; and television and perestroika. The book will interest all students of mass communications as well as Sovietologists and historians specializing in modern European history.
