  • ''As the title of this timely collection of essays suggests, there is a need to address the complex nature of media, political and cultural power in the context of centres and peripheries.
    - [...] Hutchison, O’Donnell et al. have performed a valuable service in exploring the nuances and contours of these issues. The lesson of their book is that small nations and regions share much and they need to find ways of realising their common strengths.''
