Description

Global changes in capital, power, technology and the media have caused massive shifts in how we define home and community, leaving redrawn territories and globalized contexts. This interdisciplinary study of the media brings together essays by accomplished critics to discuss the way film, television, music, and computer and electronic media are shaping identities and cultures in an increasingly globalized world.

Ranging from intensely personal to highly theoretical, the contributors explore our complex negotiation of home and homeland in a postmodern world.

Contributors: Homi Bhabha, Thomas Elsaesser, Rosa Linda Fregoso, Teshome H.

Gabriel, George Lipsitz, Margaret Morse, David Morley, John Peters, Patricia Seed, Ella Shohat, and Vivian Sobchack.
