MECO6926 Investigating Media Systems

Question:

His task requires you to investigate and create a report, of 2400 words, which shows you are able to cogently and credibly analyze media systems and practices from around the world, using comparative media theory and concepts, as outlined in the MECO6926 unit of study core readings.

The report will answer the question, "Media systems of the global North and South in comparative perspective – convergent or divergent?".

·Credible investigation of one global North media system and one global South media system.
·Coherent and correct comparative analysis and evaluation of media system convergence or divergence.
·Cogent introductory statement of your argument, logical development of claims supported by evidence, and sound conclusions.
·Use of original examples (e.g. case studies, media monitoring) to illustrate your argument.
·Clear written expression.
·Accurate referencing of sources.

 what's the next step?

To complete this assignment, you will need to develop your knowledge of media systems in the global South by doing the readings, and to investigate their media structures, media workers, and media practices via media monitoring.

which media system of the global South? which media system of the global North?   

One approach to answering the assignment question is to test this convergence hypothesis by asking if non-Western media systems are also converging towards the liberal model, using a case study

Why is emerging global superpower China still categorised as a 'developing' country?
