label Diverse autorenew 2025-09-29, 17:01 history_edu Maria Dumitru
It is hard to understand Chinese media and Chinese press system. There is no single narration that can fully describe Chinese press. This course aims to provide a better understanding to Chinese media. First, it will discuss what the term "public media" means and try to use it in Chinese context. Then the course will introduce press systems in China - the eco environment of Chinese media, using media in big cities like Guangzhou, Beijing, Shanghai, Hong Kong and Taiwan as cases. There is no other way to understand China unless you understand its media.
