This book offers a detailed treatment of European broadcasting law, set against an overview of policy in this area. In this respect the authors identify tensions within the EU polity as regards the appropriate level, purpose and mechanism of broadcast regulation. Key influences are problems of competence, the impact of changing technology and the consequences of increasing commercialisation. Furthermore, the focus of the analysis is on the practical implications of the legal framework on viewers, and the authors distinguish both between citizen and consumer and between the passive and active viewer. The underlying question is the extent to which those most in need of protection by regulation, given the purpose of broadcasting, are adequately protected.Cambridge studies in European law and policy.BroadcastingLaw and legislationEuropean Union countriesBroadcasting policyEuropean Union countriesBroadcastingLaw and legislationBroadcasting policy343.20994Harrison Jackie1961-1227029Woods Lorna315598MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910808093703321European broadcasting law and policy4200147UNINA
