Course 7.5 credits • MHIA24
This course critically examines the common notion that the power of media is constantly increasing and expanding.
By comparing a variety of cultures and countries historically, we will scrutinise the structures of power in different media systems. We will analyse key perspectives on the operation of media power such as class, gender and ethnicity/race along with such theoretical concepts as mediatisation, celebritisation, media logic and media strategy in relation to everyday life, popular culture and politics.
