The American Trojan Horse: U.S. Television Confronts Canadian Economic and Cultural Nationalism (Part II "Advertising Controls")
by Barry Berlin. 130 pgs.

Book

Read Synopsis [+]

Hide Synopsis [-]

A historical and descriptive study of the United States/Canadian mass communications "border war," this volume centers on millions of dollars spent annually by companies to advertise on U.S. border stations. Berlin chronicles this dispute as it evolves through its two stages: Canadian action (1970 to 1976) and U.S. response (1976 to 1988). He focuses on Canada's vision of the U.S. media--a "modern Trojan Horse" that has penetrated domestic media and will ultimately absorb Canadian culture and identity.

The Commercial Appropriation of Personality ("The Advertising Standards Authority Code" begins on p. 50)
by Huw Beverley-Smith. 364 pgs.

Book

Read Synopsis [+]

Hide Synopsis [-]

Commercial exploitation of attributes of an individual's personality (name, voice and likeness) is characteristic of modern advertising and marketing. This volume provides a framework for analyzing the disparate aspects of the commercial appropriation of personality and traces its discrete patterns in the major common law systems. It considers whether a coherent justification for a remedy may be identified from a range of competing theories.
