"This book explores the remarkably similar national public broadcasters of Britain
and Japan - the BBC and NHK. It considers the origins of both organisations in the
1920s, highlights how they have both been major shapers of national life and national
identity in their respective countries, how they have both been significant innovators
of broadcasting technology, and how both have high reputations for honest and balanced
news reporting. It outlines how both have adapted to cope with successive major changes
in the broadcasting landscape. The book also points out the major differences: the
BBC's greater success at being commercial and entrepreneurial, the BBC's fierce protection
of its editorial independence, often used to play a watchdog role in holding the powerful
to account - which contrasts sharply with the approach of NHK, which cooperates with
rather than confronts political elites, serving as an agent of social stability, whereas
the BBC acts more as an agent of social change. As debates about the future of public
broadcasting become more intense, this book provides useful evidence of how public
broadcasting can be approached in different ways"
