The media industries are a vital part of modern societies, producing, circulating, and presenting a wide range of cultural forms and experiences. This comprehensive collection, brought together by 49 leading experts in the field, offers an authoritative overview of the current state of scholarship while also proposing ways to expand, re-think, and innovate the field.

The chapters in this volume begin by providing a foundational understanding of key conceptual and critical perspectives in media industries research. They then introduce original interventions that stimulate new lines of inquiry. Other chapters explore the impact of digitalization on the media industries, the intersections between different industries, and the practices of conducting and teaching media industries research.

To illustrate these general ideas and arguments, the book includes specific examples and case studies drawn from a diverse range of media sectors, including advertising, publishing, comics, news, music, film, television, branded entertainment, live cinema experiences, social media, and music videos. These examples help to bring the theory to life and provide a deeper understanding of the complex dynamics and challenges facing the media industries.

This volume is an essential resource for students and academics interested in understanding and evaluating the work of the media industries. It provides a comprehensive and up-to-date overview of the field, while also offering insights and proposals for future research and practice. Chapter 10 of the book is freely available as a downloadable Open Access PDF under a Creative Commons Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivatives 4.0 license, allowing for wide dissemination and collaboration.
