Issues in cultural and media studies
Inhalt:
"This introductory text examines issues of television and cultural identities in the context of globalization. It is a wide-ranging volume, exploring many of the central cultural issues of the global age, such as media, globalization, language, gender, ethnicity, cultural politics and identity - perhaps the topic of cultural studies over the past decade. At the core of the book are two critical arguments - that television is a proliferating resource for the construction of identities, and that cultural identity is not a fixed essential 'thing' but a contingent social construction to which language is central." "The book will be essential reading for undergraduate and postgraduate courses on television and cultural identities in the fields of cultural studies, communication, media studies and sociology, with a wider appeal to those with an interest in the television industry. Key concepts are introduced and explained for those new to cultural studies, whilst debates are extended and enriched for those already familiar with them. The text is well structured, links the vocabularies of media studies and cultural studies, and is supported by original case study material."--BOOK JACKET.
