This book presents a comprehensive, full-length analysis of the
uses of media and communication technologies by different social
actors in Malaysia. Unlike other studies of the media in Malaysia
which concentrate on "political economy" or "freedom of the media"
approaches, this book focuses on the ways in which different media
forms have constituted cultural practices and power relations
amongst particular audiences and publics. It also examines the ways
in which technologies of varying scales and range have been
appropriated for various subaltern purposes and counter-hegemonic
agendas. Drawing upon recent case studies on the deployment of
different media - including mainstream and independent films,
television programming, black metal music, community rituals,
political advertising, the internet, and artistic visual
installations - it provides valuable insights into the complex,
vibrant ways in which these different media forms have negotiated
with the dominant cultural representations of Malaysian society.
The book makes an important contribution to the emergent
disciplines of media studies and cultural studies in Malaysia.
