Book Synopsis Sport and National Identity in the European Media by : Neil Blain
Book excerpt: An analysis of the way in which mass media in 12 European countries turn sport into politics, concentrating on the way the media contribute to the ongoing reconstitution of national identity. While the greater part of the volume focuses in detail on the press, there is also substantial commentary on television practice in several chapters, and two chapters address themselves exclusively to television. The volume is also concerned throughout with the political economy of the media world. Distributed by St. Martin's Press. Annotation copyright by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
