It focuses on the development of media in China by examining the diffusion of ICT and providing a case study in an indigenous place to explore the modernization process. The book offers a new perspective to understand modernization and contributes knowledge to understand China's media, technology diffusion, indigenous culture transformation into modern culture and social changes.
