Communication Power

LSE Summer School lecture with the Department of Media and Communications and POLIS


This event marks the launch of Manuel Castells latest book, Communication Power. In this wide-ranging and powerful book, Castells analyses the transformation of the global media industry by the revolution in communication technologies. He argues that a new communication system, mass self-communication, has emerged, and power relationships have been profoundly modified by the emergence of this new communication environment.

Manuel Castells is university professor and Wallis Annenberg Chair Professor of Communication Technology and Society at the Annenberg School of Communication, University of Southern California, Los Angeles, and research professor of information society at the Open University of Catalonia, Barcelona.
