Book excerpt: Radio Canada International probes the policies of Canadian shortwave broadcasting - the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation's International Service and Radio Canada International - from 1945 to 1985 to determine why and how this "voice of a middle power" broadcast to a world radio audience. Hall explains why Radio Canada International's shortwave service persisted despite the absence of documentable impact and despite challenges to its legitimacy as the "voice" of Canada.
Download or read book The Age of International Radio written by Elżbieta M. Olechowska and published by Mosaic Press (NY). This book was released on 2007 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A significant contribution to our understanding of the role of media in the shaping of our age! International radio has been a very in the significant instrument in the evolution of media and as an instrument of foreign policy for many nations. It has also undergone major transformations over the past 50 or more years. Every major political power, many countries around the world, and many other quasi-national bodies and organisations, such as the Vatican, have used international radio to get their messages disseminated internationally. THE AGE OF INTERNATIONAL RADIO examines the many players, organisations and national agencies which have been active in the arena of international radio. The volume unravels the many transformations and evolutions of international radio and focuses on Radio Canada International, RCI, which has been one of the prime players in the field. The intent of the volume, as the author states, is "...through a discussion of successive comparative and internal program evaluations, to reveal, if not a full picture, a least a reasonable glimpse of the output of RCI and several international broadcast organizations during the last two decades."
Download or read book Islands of Resistance written by Andrea Langlois and published by New Star Books. This book was released on 2010-05-14 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since radio's invention, some Canadians have been concerned about the increasingly commercialized and centralized nature of medium. Sometimes working alone, more often in teams, and always illegally, these activists represent islands of resistance within the ocean of homogenous frequencies, pirating radio signals for personal, political and artistic expression. In the first book published on the subject, Islands of Resistance gives you a view from the crowsnest of the phenomenon of pirate radio in Canada. Here is a collection of seventeen activist manifestos, artistic treatises of intent, historical essays on the development of radio and its regulatory bodies, sociological examination of pirate radio's application in new social movements, and personal anecdotes from behind the eyepatch. Just as the new media ostensibly renders the old obsolete, Islands of Resistance unveils the existence of a thriving clandestine counterculture. An invaluable addition to an unscrutinized subject in Canadian media studies, Islands of Resistance appeals to the anarchist, anti–authoritarian impulses in all of us. Visit the Islands of Resistance website for more about the book and to hear audio clips of pirate radio.

Download or read book John P L Roberts the CBC Radio Canada and Art Music written by Friedemann Sallis and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2020-10-15 with total page 405 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the impact of the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation/Société Radio Canada (CBC/SRC) on the development of art music in Canada during the broadcaster’s first fifty years (1936-1986). In so doing, it investigates the achievement of one man: John Peter Lee Roberts. Born in Australia, he arrived in Canada in 1955, and, over the next thirty years, he worked tirelessly as a producer, administrator and adviser at the state broadcaster to bring the music of Canada to the world and the world of music to Canadians. Roberts also played a crucially important role in commissioning, disseminating and promoting new music by Canadian composers.

Download or read book Broadcasting on the Short Waves 1945 to Today written by Jerome S. Berg and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2008-10-24 with total page 497 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shortwave broadcasting originated in the 1920s, when stations used the new technology to increase their range in order to serve foreign audiences and reach parts of their own country not easily otherwise covered. The early days of shortwave radio were covered in On the Short Waves, 1923-1945: Broadcast Listening in the Pioneer Days of Radio, published by McFarland in 1999 (paperback 2007). Then, two companion volumes were published, picking up the story after World War II. They were Listening on the Short Waves, 1945 to Today (McFarland, 2008; paperback 2010), which focuses on the shortwave listening community, and the present Broadcasting title, about the stations themselves and their environment. The heart of the book is a detailed, year-by-year account of the shortwave bands in each year from 1945 to 2008. It reviews what American listeners were hearing on the international and domestic shortwave bands, describes the arrivals and departures of stations, and recounts important events. The book describes the several categories of broadcasters--international, domestic, private, religious, clandestine and pirate. It explains the impact of relay stations, frequency management, and jamming. It also addresses the considerable changes in shortwave broadcasting since the end of the Cold War. The book is richly illustrated and indexed, and features a bibliography and extensive notes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper outlines the course of development of radio communication in Canada from the earliest days to the present, looking at some of the factors that influenced its direction as well as at the scientific and technological breakthroughs that made possible and improved and expanded its applications in society. It begins with a lengthy discussion of the history of non-broadcast radio communication in Canada. A brief description of the basic scientific principles upon which radio communication is based follows.

Most of the information is taken from government records, both archival and published.
Download or read book Canada before Television written by Len Kuffert and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2016-11-01 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Before screens could be stared at, listeners lent their ears to radio, and Canadian listeners were as avid as any. In Canada before Television, Len Kuffert takes us back to the earliest days of broadcasting, paying particular attention to how programs were imagined and made, loved and hated, regulated and tolerated. At a time when democracy stood out as a foundational value in the West, Canada’s private stations and the CBC often had conflicting ideas about what should or could be broadcast. While historians have documented the nationalist and culturally aspirational motives of some broadcasters, the story behind the production of programs for both broad and specialized audiences has not been as effectively told. By interweaving archival evidence with insights drawn from secondary literature, Canada before Television offers perspectives on radio’s intimate power, the promise and challenge of US programming and British influences, the regulation of taste on the air, shifting and varied musical appetites, and the difficulties of knowing what listeners wanted. While this mixed system divided Canadians then and now, the presence of more than one vision for the emerging medium made the early years of broadcasting in Canada more culturally democratic for listeners who stood a better chance of getting both what they already liked and what they might come to like. Canada before Television offers an insightful look at the place of radio and debates about programming in the development of a cultural democracy.
