En savoir plus sur le livre
Set against the backdrop of 9/11 and the Iraq war, this collection of essays examines the complex relationship between media and culture during a pivotal historical moment. Written by leading media specialists and cultural critics from Germany and North America, the essays employ a case-study approach to facilitate comparative analysis across various media forms, historical contexts, and cultural landscapes. The interdisciplinary nature of the chapters draws from media studies, cultural studies, history, audience analysis, and aesthetics, raising profound questions about representation and reality. As global information flows, amplified by new media technologies, challenge traditional comprehension and control strategies, the essays explore themes such as the role of foreign correspondents, the media's influence on identity construction, and the impact of television post-9/11. Key topics include the interplay of communication technologies and power, audience perspectives on global media, and the cultural significance of major publications. Together, these contributions provide a nuanced understanding of media's role in shaping public perception and political culture in a rapidly evolving landscape.
