Owing to increased migration dating from the 1990s, Nordic
countries have gone through substantial cultural and social
changes, resulting in increased debate surrounding the politics of
multiculturalism. One of the central realms of the discussion
around multiculturalism in the Nordic region concerns the media,
which is considered to be a vital factor in the construction of
society's values, as well as an essential tool in the integration
process of migrants, providing as it does a symbolic arena for
learning about and becoming part of society. This collection draws
together the latest research from Denmark, Finland, Norway and
Sweden to look at different aspects of the relationship between
media and migration in the Nordic region. Exploring the role played
by the media in nation building and the power of the media in the
definition of who 'belongs' in society, Media in Motion examines
the practices of inclusion and exclusion that characterise
mainstream media representations. The book also examines the manner
in which recent technological changes suggest the emergence of a
transnational and cosmopolitan media landscape; a space which blurs
the boundaries of the national and transnational, as well as
between the public and the private, with significant implications
for the ways migrants may take and become part of society. As such,
it will be of interest to those working in the fields of media,
race and ethnicity, colonialism and postcolonial studies, and
migration.
