Social Movements and the Rebuilding of the Media

William K. Carroll and Robert A. Hackett were responsible for writing "Remaking Media: The Struggle to Democratize Public Communications" (2006). The book discusses the need for democratic media and stresses the central role social movements must play to promote media reform, as an important demand for both their short term and long term goals. It also discusses the ways community media, as it is currently understood, can become more democratic and act as a special aid towards media reform demands.

A talk on some of the basic premises of the book can be read at:
