Concentrating on the EU, the book embeds governance within broader economic and political developments in a global context and demonstrates that European governance has been more about the character rather than the level of regulation.Critical media studies.Communication policyEuropeHistory20th centuryElectronic books.Communication policyHistory302.2094Michalis Maria1969-875617MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910452360703321Governing European communications1955053UNINA
