The initial aim of this research was to examine the factors which shape a sense of belonging and place among young people in Mahabad, a town in Iranian Kurdistan. This research is to look at the consumption of local, national and transnational forms of media, and how this influenced the view of events, their local environment, and the ways they chose to narrate these.

Conventions of media and popular culture "story telling" - that is the discourses used to describe current affairs and social conditions.
