This book provides a kaleidoscopic overview of journalism around the world. Its organization and execution provides a model for comparative research, and its findings raise important questions that are sure to orient future scholarship. Already well-regarded by colleagues, this publication solidifies the Worlds of Journalism project as a leading effort to make sense of the complex realities that journalists around the world confront today.--Matthew Powers, University of Washington Worlds of Journalism is an eminent milestone in comparative media research. It is ample proof of the diversity of journalistic cultures around the world and an excellent example of a truly collaborative study covering 67 countries. Its innovation lies in providing insights into the attitudes and values of media personnel beyond the Western world which truly challenge the state of the art--the book is a must-read in journalism research.--Barbara Pfetsch, editor of Political Communication Cultures in Western Europe: Attitudes of Political Actors and Journalists in Nine Countries One of the key elements of this anthology is an effort to make journalism studies truly global and comparative. This book succeeds on multiple fronts: it provides a comprehensive analysis of the various and competing strands of research in journalism studies, empirically covers the vast geography of journalism practices and gives us a blueprint of how to analyze and understand such practices. I recommend this book for its scope and theoretical execution. It is a must read for all journalism scholars.--Shakuntala Rao, author of Indian Journalism in a New Era This will be a touchstone work for decades to come. It is not an overstatement to say that this book is entirely unique; it's special because of the detailed discussion of national and regional contexts. Worlds of Journalism contributes to the truly global and international perspective of journalism, avoiding normativity and emphasizing diversity using a unique and comprehensive dataset.--Henrik rnebring, author of Newsworkers: A Comparative European Perspective
