Produktbeschreibung
The research study aims to explore the Cultivation Theory as proposed by Gerbner & Gross in 1976 in the Pakistani context and whether if it applies in the same or not.

Hall s Cultural Iceberg Model in order to provide the reader a clearer understanding of the topic under study; all of this being discovered by means of qualitative methods of research.
