Originalbroschur. Condition: Sehr gut. VI, 232 S., Ill. Ein tadelloses Exemplar. - Place, Power, Media: Mediated Responses to Globalization is a compelling, interdisciplinary exploration of how media practices and communication rituals are connected to larger economic, social, and political processes in a globalizing world. Through a rich variety of media texts, authors examine how daily, mundane, and interpersonal processes help shape 'our' place in the world, a placement that is integrally connected to social relations at the global level. Denoting a sense of geography as well as demarcating diverse social positionings, place is understood as the result of historical and contemporary discourses occurring on a range of scales and within different cultural, aesthetic, and political contexts. The authors argue that the construction, restoration, configuration, and representation of place is an important project at multiple levels; what meanings are derived from it, what meanings are infused, who the key players are, what power struggles are inherent--these issues offer rich areas of study for global media scholars interested in the place-making powers of media.- Contents: Linda Jean Kenix: Authenticity and Participation as a Radicalized Tourist Place In Post-earthquake Christchurch -- Divya McMillin: Citizen Media and Civic Engagement in Globalizing Cities -- Carol-Mei Barker: Shanghai's Migrant Bodies and Global Spaces: Zhao Dayong's Street Life (2006) -- Jo Smith: Pluralizing Notions of Place through Maori Food TV -- Danica Sterud Miller, Puyallup Nation: Anishinaabe Storytelling and the Federal Narrative in Louise Erdrich's Tracks -- Oli Wilson: Revisiting Place and Identity in Indigenous Popular Music: Lokal Stylistic Frameworks in Papua New Guinea -- Kimbra L.
