Document Summary

The different social and power approaches different political perspectives take. The study of social relations, particularly power relations that mutually constitute the production, distribution and consumption of communications resources. An example of its feature is social totality and the idea of being holistic. Holds that all human action and policy is informed by a pre-existing social structure which is governed by a set of norms and laws which are distinct from those of other social structures. The repetition of the act by individuals reproduce the structure. Structures that exist today were constituted out of human agency, even while they provide the very medium of that constitution. Example of this is the ubb decision made by the crtc - shows what policy over the years has left us with. Unregulated actions of larger telecos have led to this situation. Marriage is still a structure but there can be changes to what is acceptable within the structure (gay marriages become legal)
