Book Synopsis Televisión, globalización e identidades culturales by : Chris Barker
Download or read book Televisión, globalización e identidades culturales written by Chris Barker and published by Paidos Iberica Ediciones S A. This book was released on 2003 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Este texto introductorio aborda problemas relacionados con la televisión y las identidades culturales en el contexto de la globalización. Es un volumen con un radio de acción muy amplio, en el que se exploran muchas de las cuestiones culturales más candentes de la era global, como por ejemplo los medios de comunicación, la globalización, el lenguaje, el género, la etnicidad, la política cultural y la identidad, sin duda el tema más tratado por los estudios culturales en la última década. El libro gira alrededor de dos argumentos principales: que la televisión es un recurso idóneo para la construcción de identidades y que la identidad cultural no es una “cosa” esencial ni fija, sino una construcción social contingente cuyo núcleo lo constituye el lenguaje. Se trata de un libro de lectura obligada para los que realizan cursos de licenciatura y posgrado sobre la televisión y las identidades culturales en los campos de los estudios culturales, la comunicación, los estudios mediáticos y la sociología, así como para todos los que se interesan de alguna manera por la industria televisiva, pues en él se exponen conceptos clave para los recién iniciados en el campo de los estudios culturales, al tiempo que los debates se amplían y enriquecen para los ya familiarizados con ellos. Es un texto bien estructurado, que consigue una feliz síntesis entre los respectivos vocabularios de los estudios mediáticos y los estudios culturales.

Book excerpt: Este libro analiza el fenómeno de la internacionalización de los medios de comunicación, y particularmente de la televisión, desde tres perspectivas, la histórica, la teórica y la global. En su aspecto histórico, la televisión es investigada en su desarrollo propio, pero también como continuación de medios más antiguos. Desde el punto de vista teórico, se ponen de relieve la evolución de las discusiones sobre la función social de la televisión, así como su repercusión en las políticas nacionales e internacionales como vehículo 'imperialista' y como transmisora de la cultura occidental al 'Tercer Mundo'. Sin embargo, la perspectiva predominante a lo largo de este estudio es la global. Desde ella se muestran los grandes cambios producidos por la globalización, la incidencia de las migraciones a través de los Estados naciones y los efectos de la televisión internacional por satélite que borran los parámetros de audiencias y culturas nacionales. Entre las dimensiones global y lo local hay que identificar también la regional. En este libro, el concepto de región se refiere no sólo a territorios geográficos, sino también a los virtuales, basados en la lengua. Entre las regiones 'geolingüísticas', la hispanohablante es paradigmática en muchos sentidos. Entre otros aspectos, permite observar la penetración del capital global, regional y nacional en el fomento de la industria, y el grado del sentimiento de unión entre países distintos, a modo de una 'comunidad imaginaria'.
Book Synopsis World Television by : Joseph D. Straubhaar
Download or read book World Television written by Joseph D. Straubhaar and published by SAGE. This book was released on 2007-05-18 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: World Television: From Global to Local, a new assessment of the interdependence of television across cultures and nations brings together the most current research and theories on the subject. By examining recent developments in the world system of television as well as several theories of culture, industry, genre, and audience, author Joseph D. Straubhaar offers new insights into the topic. He argues that television is being simultaneously globalized, regionalized, nationalized, and even localized, with audiences engaging it at multiple levels of identity and interest; therefore the book looks at all these levels of operation. Key Features Draws upon both international communication and cultural studies perspectives: Presents a new model is presented that attempts to move beyond the current controversies about imperialism and globalization. Looks at historical patterns: Historical patterns across cultures and countries help compare where television has been and where it is going. Takes a contemporary focus: Uses of technology, flows and patterns of program development, genres of television, the interaction of producers and audiences, and patterns of audience choice among emerging alternatives are examined. Explores how the audience for these evolving forms of television is structured: The effects of these forces or patterns of television have on both cultural formations and individual identities are identified. Intended Audience This is an excellent text for advanced undergraduate and graduate courses in Globalizatiion and Culture, Global Media, Television Studies, Television Criticism, and International Media.

Book Synopsis Global Television by : Barbara Selznick
Download or read book Global Television written by Barbara Selznick and published by Temple University Press. This book was released on 2008-06-15 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The face of U.S. television broadcasting is changing in ways that are both profound and subtle. Global Television uncovers the particular processes by which the international circulation of culture takes place, while addressing larger cultural issues such as identity formation. Focusing on how the process of internationally made programming such as Highlander: The Series and The Odyssey—amusingly dubbed “Europudding” and “commercial white bread”—are changing television into a transnational commodity, Barbara Selznick considers how this mode of production—as a means by which transnational television is created—has both economic rewards and cultural benefits as well as drawbacks. Global Television explores the ways these international co-productions create a “global” culture as well as help form a national identity. From British “brand” programming (e.g, Cracker) that airs on A&E in the U.S. to children’s television programs such as Plaza Sesamo, and documentaries, Selznick indicates that while the style, narrative, themes and ideologies may be interesting, corporate capitalism ultimately affects and impacts these programs in significant ways.
Book Synopsis Global Media, Culture, and Identity by : Rohit Chopra
Download or read book Global Media, Culture, and Identity written by Rohit Chopra and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-10-02 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited volume examines the ways that global media shapes relations between place, culture, and identity. Through the included essays, Chopra and Gajjala 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 interdisciplinary, international scholars gathered here push the discussion of what it means to do global media studies beyond uncritical celebrations of the global media technologies (or globalization) as well as beyond perspectives that are a priori dismissive of the possibilities of global media. Some of the key questions and themes that the international contributors explore within the text include: Is the global audience of global television the same as the global audience of the internet? Can we conceptualize the global culture-media-identity dynamic beyond the discourse of postcolonialism? How does the globalization of media affect feelings of nationalism? How is the growth of a consumer "global middle class" spread, and resisted, through media? Global Media, Identity, and Culture takes a comparative media approach to addressing these, and other, issues across media forms including print, television, film, and new media

Book Synopsis Globalization, Cultural Identities, and Media Representations by : Natascha Gentz
Download or read book Globalization, Cultural Identities, and Media Representations written by Natascha Gentz and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 2012-02-01 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Globalization, Cultural Identities, and Media Representations provides a multidirectional approach for understanding the role of media in constructing cultural identities in a newly globalized media environment. The contributors cover a wide range of topics from different geopolitical areas, historical periods, and media genres. Case studies examined include the shift from print to Internet, local representations of modern world cinema and glo/cal television, narrative strategies in transnational literature, and cultural economics of the mediation of world music in India, China, Algeria, Israel, Europe, and the United States. This case study approach allows for deeper insights into the complexity of each cultural subsystem as part of the whole media culture system. This book exemplifies a transcultural and transdisciplinary dialogue that maps out new—relocalized—territories and borders for mediated cultural identities and also reveals the complexity and connectedness of all of these discourses.
Book Synopsis Globalizaciones múltiples by : Peter L. Berger
Download or read book Globalizaciones múltiples written by Peter L. Berger and published by Grupo Planeta (GBS). This book was released on 2002-12 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Muchas veces invocada, pero escasamente comprendida, la globalizacion es aplaudida como respuesta a todos los problemas del mundo a la vez que se la culpa de ellos, desde la contaminacion hasta la pobreza. En Globalizaciones multiples, Peter L. Berger y Samuel P. Huntington reunen a un elenco de expertos de todo el mundo que dibuja un retrato sutil y lleno de matices mostrando a un tiempo el poder y las consecuencias inesperadas de esta gran fuerza del mundo contemporaneo.En este libro los estereotipos que identifican la globalizacion con el imperialismo estadounidense, por un lado o con una especie de panacea economica por el otro acaban desmoronandose ante el examen riguroso de estos analistas. Al observar la globalizacion en paises como Chile, Japon, Sudafrica, Alemania, Turquia, Hungria, Taiwan, India y Estados Unidos los autores dan fe de la existencia de una cultura global incipiente de marcado origen y contenido estadounidense pero que no es ni una fuerza dirigida desde un centro como en el caso del imperialismo clasico, ni una mera "Disneylandia metastatica." Examinan las corrientes que transmiten esta cultura que van desde una clase mundial de jovenes profesionales hasta las organizaciones no gubernamentales y definen tanto las multiples variantes de la globalizacion -las influencias budistas, la modernidad islamica- como las subglobalizaciones que agrupan regiones enteras. Asimismo los autores llaman la atencion sobre fuerzas globalizadoras que han pasado inadvertidas al examen de los medios de comunicacion como por ejemplo el papel del protestantismo evangelico -que se adapta a los idiomas y las culturas locales e introduce valores estadounidenses caracteristicos-y el delOpus Dei el movimiento catolico conservador que tuvo su origen en Espana.Analitico, intens
Book Synopsis Contemporary Majority Nationalism by : Alain Gagnon
Download or read book Contemporary Majority Nationalism written by Alain Gagnon and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2011 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For many years nationalism has been associated with political demands by minority nations that challenge the rights of the central state. However, over the last two decades many works have challenged this perspective, arguing that nationalism - as a political phenomenon - is likely to emerge among both majority and minority nations. In light of a renewed interest in the study of national Contemporary Majority Nationalism brings together a group of major scholars committed to making sense of this widespread phenomenon. To better illustrate the reality of majority nationalism and the way it has been expressed, authors combine analytical and comparative perspectives. In the first section, contributors highlight the paradox of majority nationalism and the ways in which collective identities become national identities. The second section offers in-depth case study analyses of France, the United Kingdom, Spain, Canada, and the United States. This book is an international project led by three members of the Research Group on Plurinational Societies based at Université du Québec à Montréal.
Book Synopsis Televisión, audiencias y estudios culturales by : David Morley
Download or read book Televisión, audiencias y estudios culturales written by David Morley and published by . This book was released on 1996 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Uno de los más importantes teóricos de los estudios culturales actuales examina críticamente en este libro el surgimiento, desarrollo y futuro de la indagación de la relación de las audiencias con los medios, uno de los temas más conflictivos de la cultura contemporánea. Su posición, apoyada en importantes trabajos de campo, enfrenta las teorías de los «efectos medibles» o de tiempos cortos, las teorías acotadas a los efectos individuales, para ubicar el estudio de las audiencias en el marco sociocultural, en la relación con el poder, en las luchas por el significado o por la producción de sentido. Los estudios de etnografía de la audiencia que Morley sintetiza en este libro se apoyan en un complejo trabajo interdisciplinario que, rompiendo con las formas tradicionales de los estudios sobre los «efectos» de los medios, ingresa contribuciones de la psicología, la sociología, la semiótica, la teoría de la ideología, la historia de los medios. Los sólidos trabajos de campo en los que se apoya, la innovación de sus estrategias metodológicas, dan cuenta de formas de investigación de la cultura contemporánea que rompen con muchos estereotipos y lugares comunes y contribuyen a un mayor rigor en la crítica y el análisis cultural.

Download or read book Tour-isms written by Nuria Enguita Mayo and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tourism conceived as a political and cultural phenomenon, in full expansion thanks to the globalising process of late capitalism which, together with the consumer and leisure society and the information, communication and transport technologies, is radically transforming our territories and (space-time) perception of the world. A contemporary practice, mobility, yet different according to the place one is speaking from: perpetual present and pure space, deterritorialised, for the globalised; impossibility of the present and physically confined space for the localised. The uses of time and space are clearly differentiated and at the same time they themselves differentiate. The pursuit of happiness, the desire for escape, the discovery of the Other and the return to nature are, according to some tourism analysts, the generators of the imaginaries of desire when it comes to embarking on a journey. A critical analysis of these constructed imaginaries which will reveal some of the mechanisms which induce that desire in capitalist society has been the impulse behind this project. Tour-isms is structured through two interconnected realities, the ''tourist-subject'', a subject who activates environments and standardised memories legitimised by the individuality of experience and exploration; and an agent of transformation, a social player actively involved in processes of transformation of the territories s/he visits. And the ''touristified spaces'', which reveal some of the economic, political and cultural processes which impose new forms of socialisation and new uses and behaviours on the borders of private and public, what is and what can be historical. Tour-isms does not set out to make a totalising analysis of tourism or to offer a historical future for it, nor does it wish to propose a superficial criticism of tourism or the tourist or to establish new models for this practice. Tour-isms is a transversal project which links a series of people and groups who, f
Book Synopsis Latin American Television by : John Sinclair
Download or read book Latin American Television written by John Sinclair and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 1998-12-17 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Latin American Television makes English speakers aware of the dimensions, operation, and significance of the globalization of television in the Spanish-speaking world. Second only in scale to the market for English-language programming, the Spanish-language market embraces not just most nations of South and Central America but also Spain, and even the United States—the sixth largest Spanish-speaking country in the world. This intercontinental space is connected physically by satellite communication, and culturally by a common language and heritage which binds it as both a `geolinguistic region' and an `imagined community' which certain media corporations, Latin American and North American, seek to exploit. A similar phenomenon with regard to Brazil and the Portuguese-speaking world is also examined, with special attention to its comparable features and points of exchange with the Spanish-speaking world. The book chronicles and analyses the development and structure of the globalization of these markets as a `Latin world'.
