Abstract
- In Daniel Hallin and Paolo Mancini's study 'Comparing Media Systems' (2004), the authors discuss the phenomenon of "savage deregulation" in the media sector as a hurdle in Southern Europe's path toward modernization. However, their analysis of the phenomenon is problematic in that it equates deregulation with a "commercial deluge" (2004: 125). This analogy masks the true causes of savage deregulation under certain conditions, as well as its potential benefits under repressive regimes. Greece and Thailand are used comparatively to analyze the distinct causes and results of savage deregulation in the European and global context. ..PAT.-Unpublished Manuscript [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
