Brief description Economic, Legal and Cultural Dynamics of TV Format Flows in the Asia/Pacific Region. Globalisation affects all nation-states, especially through TV systems. Little is known about the extended circumstances of these changes, especially the role played by transfer of ideas and techniques, particularly program formats. This investigation of the international dimension of national TV systems in Asia and the Pacific develops a comparative analysis of complex patterns of contemporary economic, legal and cultural sovereignty. By studying national, sub-regional and regional currents in TV "copycatting", we will generate significant lessons for TV industries, media policy and legal protection. A book analysing the meaning of format flow will become a landmark in the field.
