Book Description:
This book offers a fresh and accessible introduction to the relationship between media power and cultural production. By marshalling a range of theoretical perspectives from political economy and cultural studies, The Media and Cultural Production invites the reader to analyze the relationship between the making of meaning, political, economic and social power and the machinery of cultural production - the media.
The book:
Critically examines the notion of the `cultural industries’
Examines the regulatory framework in which the cultural industries operate
Looks at the impact of globalization on cultural production
Explores the way in which meaning is both produced and contested
The Media and Cultural Production demonstrates how concepts in communication and cultural studies can be mobilized to analyze cultural production in a range of contexts. As such, it will be invaluable reading for all students of media and cultural studies and political communication.
