资本主义经济的全球渗透在传播科技日新月异的后工业信息时代已经无孔不入,不仅导致了南北差距的扩大,而且也加剧了西方体系内部的分化。英、美跨国媒介集团用尽所有手段,通过购买出版公司和造纸公司,在不同形式的媒介领域扩张链接关系,以维护其作为文化产业巨头的地位。作为出版业跨国大公司诞生地的英国、德国以及美国的国家传播政策并没有致力于遏制大公司的过度扩张。加拿大图 The global infiltration of the capitalist economy has been pervasive in the post-industrial information era of rapidly changing science and technology. It has not only led to an increase in the gap between the North and the South, but has also exacerbated the fragmentation within the Western system. Britain and the United States transnational media groups exhausted all means to expand their linkages in various forms of media through the purchase of publishing companies and paper companies in order to maintain their status as a cultural industry giant. The national communications policies of Britain, Germany and the United States, the birthplace of transnational corporations in the publishing industry, are not dedicated to curbing the over-expansion of big companies.
