Reviews

'Mediarchy is a magnificent work of synthesis that brings together many different approaches to media. Citton boldly puts the analysis of media at the centre of social thought and shows just how many of the things we observe about our times fall into place through this perspective.'
McKenzie Wark, New School for Social Research

'Grounded and creative, this book proposes a timely synthesis of recent media theory. Citton questions the "transcontinental divide" that has informed Media Studies from its onset and in the process manages to breathe new life into some of the most fundamental questions facing media critics today. Mediarchy is a must read for anyone interested in understanding the complex, multitiered operationality of media in our modern world.'
Mark Hansen, Duke University

"a rich and thought-provoking book"
European Journal of Communication
