Celebrity Humanitarianism and North-South Relations

Politics, place and power

Herausgeber: Richey, Lisa Ann

Beschreibung

There is a pressing need to examine celebrities and the role of context in the power relations that constitute North-South relations. This book gazes through the keyhole of 'celebrity' in order to investigate key concepts such as accountability, agency, authenticity, brand, development, mediation, inequality, need, public engagement and representation. This book offers a global, interdisciplinary and theoretically-informed collection of cases highlighting celebrity engagement in over a dozen countries on five continents.
