In recent years, celebrity philanthropy and activism has attracted much attention from the media, sparking a great deal of public interest. As exponents and endorsers of the marketisation and corporatisation of philanthropy and activism, globally renowned super-celebrities habitually lend their name, time and energy to a range of causes. They help raise awareness, generate funds and endeavour to evoke social and political responses to crucial societal issues. These can range from domestic violence, cancer prevention, climate change and transgender acceptance, to refugee problems and fighting poverty at home and abroad. But in what ways do (mediated communications about) these celebrities have the power to define what is going wrong in the world, who or what is to blame, how this can be solved and how this is to be evaluated morally and ethically? Does celebrity humanitarianism and activism serve to reinforce postcolonial power relations or does it help solve social problems, advancing traditional views on how society is, and should be, organised? Importantly, more than conceptual and empirical exploration of celebrity philanthropy and activism as such, this book analyses the mediated communication, the mediatised narratives that these endeavours provide.Combining insights from philanthropy and welfare regime studies, international politics and diplomacy, postcolonial studies, but also from marketing, from celebrity, star and fan studies, and from media, communication and cultural studies, this book critically analyses the mediated discourses and debates that celebrity philanthropy and activism provokes, and considers wider ethical and theoretical perspectives. It will be of interest to all scholars and students working in sociology, health and social care and social policy.

Media policy issues sit at the heart of the structure and functioning of media systems in Europe and beyond. This book brings together the work of a range of leading media policy scholars to provide inroads to a better understanding of how effective media policies can be developed to ensure a healthy communication sector that contributes to the wellbeing of individual citizens, as well as a more democratic society. Faced with a general atmosphere of disillusionment in the European project, one of the core questions tackled by the volume’s contributors is: what scope is there for European media policy that can exist beyond the national level? Uniquely, the volume’s chapters are structured around four key policy themes: media convergence; the continued role and position of public regulatory intervention in media policy; policy issues arising from the development of new electronic communication network environments; and lessons for European media policy from cases beyond the EU. In its chapters, the volume provides enriched understandings of the role and significance of policy actors, institutions, structures, instruments and processes in communication and media policy.

Focusing on the first two months after the Russian invasion of Ukraine on February 24, 2022, this book presents quantitative and qualitative analyses of the main television news coverage of the war in 11 countries across the geopolitical spectrum. Contributors discuss coverage by Russia’s Vremya, Brazil’s Globo Jornal Nacional, India’s DD The News, China’s CCTV News, South Africa’s SABC News, Qatar’s Al Tase'ah, Finland’s YLE News, UK’s BBC News, Germany’s ARD Tagesschau, Italy’s RAI TG1 and US cable and broadcast network news. By selecting countries from across the geopolitical landscape and using a common methodological framework for a quantitative and qualitative analysis of the news in each country, contributors are able to draw clear comparisons and contrasts throughout the book. The analyses reveal both common and nation-specific themes and angles, demonstrating an unfettered relationship between news media and government and identifying geopolitical tensions and allegiances. Along with a substantive introduction, methodological framework, conclusion, and reflective epilogue, the collective chapters in this book consider how these cases speak to perennial issues across the globe.
