Philadelphia: Annenberg School for Communication, Center for Global Communication Studies (CGCS) (2012), 25 pp.
"Instead of defining a priori the types of websites to be included in a national web, the approach put forward here makes use of web devices (platforms and engines) that purport to provide (ranked) lists of URLs relevant to a particular country. Once gathered in such a manner, the websites are studi ... more
