This book provides unique and important reassessments of twentieth-century and contemporary British and Irish press and periodical media within social, cultural, technological, economic, and historical contexts. It offers a timeline of significant events for cross-reference and an extensive bibliography for further research. Throughout history, key political, economic, and social processes have played a significant role in hindering or promoting the expansion and dissemination of information across Britain and Ireland via newspapers and periodicals. In a contemporary era characterized by debate on the limits of devolution and the potential of independence, it is essential to assess the roles played by newspapers and periodicals in enabling national and regional identities to emerge, cohere, and diversify over time. This proposed volume in a three-volume series aims to address these matters, offering a definitive account of newspaper and periodical press activity across Britain and Ireland between 1900 and 2017, and addressing questions related to four key research interests: general social\/political history, newspaper and periodical history, cultural history, and technological history. A further aim is to situate such discussions within the larger framework of communication and media.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1552g                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 179 x 250 x 54 (mm)                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781474424929                                                      \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shulph Ink","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44096242811130,"sku":"9781474424929","price":177.91,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/55eb3948dac9f43eb37f298ca5530e28.jpg?v=1629948939","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/edinburgh-history-of-the-british-and-irish-press-competition-and-disruption-1900-2017","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
