Nick Couldry is one of the world's leading analysts of media power
and voice, and has been publishing widely for 25 years. This
volume, published 20 years after The Place of Media Power, brings
together a rich collection of essays from his earliest to his
latest writings, some of them hard to access, plus two previously
unpublished chapters. The book's 15 chapters cover a variety of
themes from voice to space, from Big Data to democracy, and from
art to reality television. Taken together, they give a unique
insight into the range of Couldry's interests and passions.
Throughout, Couldry's commitment to connecting media research to
wider debates in philosophy and social theory is clear. A
substantial Afterword reflects on the common themes that run
throughout his work and this volume, and the particular challenges
of grasping media's contribution to social order in an age of
datafication. A preface by leading US media scholar Jonathan Gray
sets these essays in context. The result is an exciting and
clearly-written text that will interest students and researchers of
media, culture and social theory across the world.
