This collection presents new work in risk media studies from
critical humanities perspectives. Defining, historicizing, and
consolidating current scholarship, the volume seeks to shape an
emerging field, signposting its generative insights while examining
its implicit assumptions. When and under what conditions does risk
emerge? How is risk mediated? Who are the targets of risk media?
Who manages risk? Who lives with it? Who are most in danger? Such
questions-the what, how, who, when, and why of risk media-inform
the scope of this volume. With roots in critical media studies and
science and technology studies, it hopes to inspire new questions,
perspectives, frameworks, and analytical tools not only for risk,
media, and communication studies, but also for social and cultural
theories. Editors Bishnupriya Ghosh and Bhaskar Sarkar bring
together contributors who elucidate and interrogate risk media's
varied histories and futures. This book is meant for students and
scholars of media and communication studies, science and technology
studies, and the interdisciplinary humanities, looking either to
deepen their engagement with risk media or to broaden their
knowledge of this emerging field.
