About the book
This book provides a comprehensive overview of European media today in a
period of transformation. It maps the full scope of contemporary media
policy and industry activities while also assessing the impact of new
technologies and radical changes in distribution and consumption on media
practices, organizations and strategies. Bringing together contributions
from media scholars in the Euromedia Research Group, this book represents
the continuation and further development of a long tradition of media policy
books written by the group. Benefiting from more than twenty years of
experience in the observation and critical analysis of trends within
European Media, this volume is split into two sections covering a range of
issues including structural changes within specific European media sectors
and the challenges facing European media.

About the book
Based on work the author has carried out with survivor groups in South
Africa and Northern Ireland, Recording Memories from Political Violence
combines written and audiovisual texts to describe and analyze the use of
documentary film-making in recording experiences of political conflict. A
variety of issues relevant to the genre are addressed at length, including
the importance of ethics in the collaboration between the film-maker and the
participant and the effect of location on the accounts of participants.
McLaughlin draws on the diverse fields of film and cultural studies, as well
as nearly twenty years of production experience, in this informed and
instructive contribution to documentary film-making and post-conflict
studies.
