Global Media Culture And Identity Theory Cases And Approaches

This volume examines the ways that global media shapes relations between place, culture, and identity. Through the included essays, the editors offer a mix of theoretical reflections and empirical case studies that will help readers understand how the media can shape cultural identities and, conversely, how cultural formations can influence the political economy of global media. The scholars gathered here push the discussion of what it means to do global media studies beyond uncritical celebrations of global media technologies (or globalization) as well as beyond perspectives that are a priori dismissive of the possibilities of global media.
