Examining the economic and organizational structure and operation of Arab mass media, Rugh (president, America-Mideast Educational and Training Services, Inc.) categorizes Arab print media into five subtypes, describing and analyzing them in separate chapters. Syria, Sudan, Libya, and pre-2003 Iraq are argued to have "mobilization" systems, in which the press is largely a tool of the ruling powers in mobilizing public support. Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, and Oman have a "loyalist" press characterized by private ownership, but also their susceptibility to government economic and political influence. The "diverse" press in Kuwait, Morocco, and Yemen is privately owned and relatively freer. Finally, the "transitional" system, seen in Jordan, Tunisia, Egypt, and Algeria share characteristics of the above, but are in a state of flux. He also describes the emergence of an international pan-Arab press and briefly analyzes Arab radio and television structures. Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
