By perspective, there is a
debate whether
Globalization is already a
completed thought or an
ongoing process.
GLOBALIZATION AND MEDIA
Media on the other hand, is
quite easy to comprehend.
As a word, Media is a plural
definition of Medium- a
means of conveying
something , such as
channels of communication.
By 1920, it was
linked/related to the surge
of globalization
In the 1920’s, the idea of “Media”
was a concept to discuss due that
people were talking about their
fears over the harmful effects of
comic books, radio, and film. The
concern was that young people
would tend to read propagandas in
the radio, violence in comics, and
couples disappearing in the dark
movie houses.
GLOBALIZATION AND MEDIA
The Media theorist Marshall
McLuhan once declared that
“the medium is the message”.
He did not mean that ideas
(messages) are useless and do
not affect people but rather
the statement was media, as a
form of technology, reshapes
societies.
There are five (5) periods that capsulate
Media and Globalization: we will look at
different time periods and point out how
the media in each time period
contributed to the globalization of the
world. Media-and globalization as well-
have developed sporadically, erratically,
in fits and starts, driven by human needs,
desires and actions, resulting to greater
benefits and sometimes greater harm.
