Abstract:

As a field in its own right, Minority Language Media studies is developing
fast. The recent technological and social developments that have accelerated
media convergence and opened new ways of access and exchange into spaces
formerly controlled by media institutions, offer new opportunities, challenges
and dangers to minority languages, and especially to their already established
media institutions. This book includes debates on what convergence and
participation actually mean, a series of case studies of specific social media
developments in minority language, as well as comparative studies on how the
cultural industries have engaged with the new possibilities brought about by
media convergence. Finally, the book also offers a historical review of the
development of Minority Language Media worldwide, and evidences the areas in
which more extensive research is required.
