Understanding Foreign Correspondence: A Euro-American Perspective of Concepts, Methodologies, and Theories
New York et al.: Peter Lang (2011), xi, 212 pp.
ISBN 978-1-4331-1045-0 (pbk)
"There are as many as 3,400 correspondents covering the United States, among them approximately 600 print and broadcast correspondents from European countries. The importance of the foreign correspondents corps stationed in the United States and of their work has increased commensurate with the world preeminence gained by the U.S. after World War II. This book examines the state of research on European foreign correspondence from the United States and on the corps of journalists that produces it. Contributions from both European and American authors examine the varied conceptual issues regarding foreign correspondence, the methodologies that have been employed in studies carried out on both sides of the Atlantic, and the theories that were and could be tested when studying the subject."
