Section Title:
Global Media Studies
Section Info:
This course focuses on transnational flows of media and popular culture in relation to contemporary issues of gender, ethnicity, nation, migration, “new Media” technologies, and will provide an introduction to the broad range of interdisciplinary traditions in the field of transnational Media Studies. We will begin by exploring issues of production and political economy, content and representation, interpretation and audiences, and effects and cognition. From there we will branch out into the hybrid, the digital, and the post-binary approaches within the field. The course will include canonical readings as well as the latest research being carried out in this intersectional and global ranging field of studies, inescapably addressing issues of gender and ethnicity as these inform mediated approaches. Students will be encouraged to either pursue an original research project or to produce a series of response papers throughout the semester. We will engage in audiovisual media screening as a way to understand media analysis and in a small and rudimentary production mini-project to be able to theorize and understand the constraints in media production as these impinge on the availability and circulation of mainstream media. We will host at least two off campus major scholars whose work centrally addressed the themes in this class.
