media Transnational Media: Concepts and Cases provides a clear and

topics such as media concentration, the cultural, political, and
economic impact of media, and the primary centers of new and
traditional media activities. Chapters organized by geographic
region offer instructive pedagogical features--including case
studies and essays, and illustrations, maps and charts--that
strengthen understanding of distinctive and emerging practices in
the production, distribution, and consumption of media products.

Gender, Race, and Social Identity in American Politics: The Past
and Future of Political Access explores the ways in which cultural
expression is represented in American politics as it intersects
with issues of gender, race, and the construction of social
identity. Specifically, this body of work examines how
representations in the media and larger culture can establish and
diminish the status of diverse communities of American politicians.
Contributors analyze the rhetorical and performative changes that
have occurred in America as it has shifted politically from growing
acceptance and tolerance to an obscure—and often
hostile—conservative ideology. This book contributes to the
growing dialogue surrounding American politics by citing specific
cases of gender and race-based infringements of the current
political system, as purported by media and party players. This
book will be especially useful to scholars of political science,
media studies, gender studies, and critical race studies.
