The study was conducted by the book's editor, international feminist media scholar, Carolyn M. Byerly. The text draws together the most robust data from that study, presenting it in 29 chapters on individual nations and three additional chapters with historical background on women in journalism and a theoretical framework grounded in feminist political economy. The book is the most expansive effort to date to consider women's standing in the journalism profession across the world. The contributing authors, in most cases the original researchers for their respective nations in the Global Report study, seek to question the status of women in newsrooms, asking how far women have come and what their progress (or lack of progress) tells us about women's right to communicate. 606 $aSociology 606 $aFeminist theory 606 $aCommunication 606 $aGender Studies$3http://scigraph.springernature.com/things/product-market-codes/X35000 606 $aFeminism$3http://scigraph.springernature.com/things/product-market-codes/E44030 606 $aMedia Studies$3http://scigraph.springernature.com/things/product-market-codes/412000 606 $aJournalism$3http://scigraph.springernature.com/things/product-market-codes/X28010 606 $aMedia and Communication$3http://scigraph.springernature.com/things/product-market-codes/412010 615 0$aSociology. 615 0$aFeminist theory. 615 0$aCommunication. 615 14$aGender Studies. 615 24$aFeminism. 615 24$aMedia Studies. 615 24$aJournalism. 615 24$aMedia and Communication. 676 $a070.4082 702 $aByerly$b Carolyn M$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910790731703321 996 $aThe Palgrave International Handbook of Women and Journalism$93742297 997 $aUNINA
