In TV Socialism, Aniko Imre provides an innovative history of
television in socialist Europe during and after the Cold War.
Rather than uniform propaganda programming, Imre finds rich
evidence of hybrid aesthetic and economic practices, including
frequent exchanges within the region and with Western media, a
steady production of varied genre entertainment, elements of
European public service broadcasting, and transcultural,
multi-lingual reception practices. These televisual practices
challenge conventional understandings of culture under socialism,
divisions between East and West, and the divide between socialism
and postsocialism. Taking a broad regional perspective encompassing
Eastern Europe and the Soviet Union, Imre foregrounds continuities
between socialist television and the region's shared imperial
histories, including the programming trends, distribution patterns,
and reception practices that extended into postsocialism.
Television, she argues, is key to understanding European socialist
cultures and to making sense of developments after the end of the
Cold War and the enduring global legacy of socialism.
