Expert answer

 

The New World Information and Communication Order (NWICO) was a set of principles proposed by the UN General Assembly in 1973. The NWICO called for an international system of communication that would be more equitable and just, with a greater flow of information from developed to developing countries. However, the proposal was never fully implemented and ran into opposition from Western nations, who saw it as a threat to their control over the flow of information. In recent years, there has been a renewed interest in the idea of a NWICO, as the global media landscape has become increasingly dominated by a handful of powerful corporations. Some scholars believe that a new NWICO is needed in order to address the imbalances in the global media system and create a more democratic and inclusive media environment.
