The Media in Asia

Abstract

This overview article operationally defines Asia as the three subregions constituting the South, the Southeast and the East. It discusses the Occidental and the Oriental (i.e. Asian values) views of press freedom and argues the case for placing this debate within the framework of Article 19 of the UN Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Moreover, it looks at the relevance of old media, as well as old media theory, in the context of the new media that have become essential for global competition. It provides the rudiments of a structural theory suitable for communication analysis in the era of globalization.
