lates a particular vision of society State as conspirator; it seeks to influence media through unconventional channels,
e.g., US government paying commentators to express White House views)
Trends in the western world in the last thirty years have favoured a larger role for market
forces and a smaller one for the state. This departure from the ideas of economist John
Maynard Keynes, whose ideas were highly influential in building up the state’s role as an Media Economics, Policy, and Regulation 4-28
actor in the marketplace and as a source of income redistribution after World War II,
distinguishes the current period as post-Keynesian in Nesbitt-Larking’s view. Post-
Keynesian ideas about the state and the market argue that the state’s role should be limited
to ensuring the integrity of the currency through monetary policy. Otherwise, direct state
intervention in the economy leads to national debt, distortions in the marketplace, and the
risk of excessive state involvement in the lives of citizens. Post-Keynesian ideas are
espoused by neo-liberals and neo-conservatives, two related ideological movements that
have gained prominence in recent decades.
Nesbitt-Larking argues that the withdrawal of the state from the economy is not the same
thing as “deregulation”; that is, we get “market regulation” instead. Markets enforce social
discipline on people, expand the power of capital relative to labour, and replace public
interest in decisions英语论文网 【http://www.51lunwen.org】 about the future of society with private power. The state then comes to
act in a service role relative to markets and private capital, enforcing private contracts,
policing social crises, and lobbying internationally for expanded trade, anti-piracy efforts
(e.g., illegal copying of movies and music), and intellectual copyright protection. The neo-
liberal state, convinced of the need to do “more with less,” therefore gives up some of its
historical autonomy in assuming a secondary service role as it relates corporations and
capitalist international institutions like the World Trade Organization.
c. the emergence of laws governing the media in a liberal-capitalist context
Relative to the British parliamentary system on which the Canadian politics was modeled,
Canadian courts have a larger role. The Charter of Rights and Freedoms, made law in 1982,
gave Canadians far greater scope for individual rights. Article 2 in the Charter lists the four
fundamental freedoms available to Canadians. Among them is 2b, guaranteeing the
freedom of expression so crucial to a democratic political system:
2. Everyone has the following fundamental freedoms:
a) freedom of conscience and religion;
b) freedom of thought, belief, opinion and expression, including freedom of the press and
other media of communication;
c) freedom of peaceful assembly; and
d) freedom of association.
