Perhaps it is an unorthodox suggestion, but rich in history and North American context in my opinion. Chapters of "Space, Time, and Communications" and "Tehcnology and Ideology: The Case of the Telegraph" in James W. Carey's "Communication as Culture: essays on media and society" It raises some fundamental questions about the concept of convergence in general idea of space and time, and its political and economic implications of the historical roots in the monopoly status of communications. -- *Liao <http://zhongwen.com/cgi-bin/zipux2.cgi?b5=%E5%BB%96>,Han <http://zhongwen.com/cgi-bin/zipux2.cgi?b5=%E6%BC%A2>-Teng <http://zhongwen.com/cgi-bin/zipux2.cgi?b5=%E9%A8%B0>* DPhil student at the OII <http://people.oii.ox.ac.uk/hanteng/about/>(web) needs you <http://people.oii.ox.ac.uk/hanteng/>(blog) Sabryna Cornish wrote:
Hi all--I am teaching a graduate course on media convergence. I have a good idea for readings for the course, but wanted some suggestions from list serv members about what they might require graduate students to read. I am purposely not including a description of the course to see what list serv members think about when they consider the term media convergence. I will say this is a theoretically based course. Thanks in advance for any help!
