    Alliance Atlantis Communications Inc: the Emergence of A

    The Pennsylvania State University The Graduate School College of Communications ALLIANCE ATLANTIS COMMUNICATIONS INC: THE EMERGENCE OF A CANADIAN CONTENDER IN THE INTERNATIONAL MEDIA MILIEU A Thesis in Mass Communications by Marsha Ann Tate © 2007 Marsha Ann Tate Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy May 2007 ii The thesis of Marsha Ann Tate was reviewed and approved* by the following: Dr. Jorge R. Schement Professor of Communications Chair of Committee Thesis Co-advisor Dr. Theordore R. Alter Professor of Agricultural, Environmental, and Regional Economics Thesis Co-advisor Dr. Richard D. Taylor Professor of Telecommunications Studies Dr. Patrick R. Parsons Professor of Ethics Dr. John S. Nichols Professor of Communications Associate Dean of Graduate Studies *Signatures are on file with the Graduate School. iii Abstract Using a combination of case study and historical research methodologies, this study examines the development of Toronto, Ontario-based Alliance Atlantis Communications Inc. and its predecessor companies within the context of a globalized media environment. Specifically, the study identifies and analyses key factors that helped Alliance Atlantis to emerge as a viable competitor in both the North American and international television marketplaces. The in-depth investigation of Alliance Atlantis Communications Inc.—one of Canada’s most successful integrated distribution- exhibition-production companies to date—illustrates the complex interrelationships between domestic and international economics, regulatory policies, technological innovations, as well as entrepreneurial skills in shaping the development of a modern-day media corporation. By highlighting key stakeholders, productions, and mergers over the course of Alliance Atlantis’ and its predecessor companies’ histories, the study also considers how the above-mentioned factors have forcibly changed Alliance Atlantis’ corporate structure, strategies, and entertainment products.
