Public Broadcasting and the Crisis of Corporate Governance Abstract Throughout the world, the future of public service broadcasting is in doubt. Partly this is a crisis of technology and its challenges to the prior order. Partly this is a crisis of definition and ole.r And partly, this is a crisis of economic organization: the capacity of a sector, because of its culture or its tradition of management, to respond to the needs and opportunities of the moment. There is widely available literature on the relationship between responsiveness and the structure of for-profit corporations, but precious little on the application of governance arguments to the public and non-profit foundation sector. The argument of this Essay, however, is that for public broadcasting to flourish, for new technologies ot provide opportunities for substantial growth in impact, it may be necessary to transform public broadcasters.

  • Caribbean Cultures and Mass Communication Technology in the 21St Century
    CARIBBEAN CULTURES AND MASS COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY IN THE 21ST CENTURY by Aggrey Brown. A Roundtable Discussion Paper presented to the Caribbean Studies Association Conference at the Hilton Hotel, Port of Spain, Trinidad; May 22nd to 27th, 1990. (The paper is a DRAFT that will be revised following presentation to the Conference.) INTRODUCTION A variety of interpretations can be brought to bear on the concepts of culture and technology, and hence, the topic of this Roundtable discussion. It is therefore appropriate before proceeding, to define how both concepts are being used in this paper and to show their relationship to each other. Culture constitutes the symbolic, instrumental and social responses of collectivities of people to their environment. This holistic definition is similar to that of Peter Worsley for whom "Culture is those institutions in which the ideas we live by are produced and through which they are communicated." ' Technology refers to the physical and intellectual tools that people use to mediate their relationship with their environment. Environment then, is a common factor to both culture and technology. And in this context, "environment" comprises more than physical external space. It is descriptive of all that is outside of the ego self and is therefore dynamic: impacting on individuals as they in turn impact on it. Culture and technology then, are analytically distinct but dialectically related phenomena. Technology helps to shape and produce culture as culture creates and employs technology. Thus, societies in their myriad manifestations are products of a complex dialectic: the interplay between cultural expression - itself a dialectic - and technological application.

This covers the period from the first public demonstration of an early form of the technology until the official launch of a full high-definition BBC service. The assessment is achieved via an analysis of four key factors. Chapter One covers the first of these, the private individuals working on television, with an emphasis on the publicity-hungry efforts of John Logie Baird.
