The Cultural Histories of Radio Luxembourg and Europe n1Broadcasting Across Europe\nAuthor(s): Richard Legay\nFormat: Paperback\nPublisher: Springer International Publishing AG, Switzerland\nImprint: Palgrave Macmillan\nISBN-13: 9783031462528, 978-3031462528\nSynopsis\nThis book focuses on two commercial radio stations, Radio Luxembourg and Europe n1, which were popular institutions in Western Europe throughout the Long Sixties, working across media and broadcasting transnationally. It argues that the existence of an overarching dispositif of commercial radio stations enabled them to operate on various dimensions and differentiated them from other broadcasters. The book therefore answers current calls in media history to look beyond national and single-medium borders and contributes to the cultural and media history of Western Europe.
