The Mediated Youth Reader (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Since the first book was signed almost ten years ago, the Mediated Youth series has published nearly two dozen volumes, with more in process or production. This milestone provides the perfect opportunity to reflect on how the series has evolved, how it has contributed to the field, and in which direction(s) it is moving.
The chapters reprinted in this volume have been selected to showcase the variety and diversity of topics published in the series. Grounded in cultural studies, they approach
mediated youth through the lenses of race, ethnicity, gender, sexuality, religion, nationality, and technology. As a whole, they paint a multi-faceted, complex, and nuanced picture of the relationship between youth and media today, and demonstrate that there is no one, singular «youth.» They remind us of the rich diversity of life experiences and media involvements of youth from a range of backgrounds, cultures, and countries.
These chapters serve not only as a retrospective collection of scholarship published in Peter Lang's Mediated Youth book series, but also as a roadmap to the diversity of scholarship characterizing the field of youth media studies during these years.

Rezensionen

«The rich diversity of this volume admirably captures the lived diversity of young people's mediated lives, challenging any homogenizing accounts of 'youth' and revealing the complex interplay between identities, agency, media, and politics. It will surely prove vital for researchers and illuminating for students.» (Sonia Livingstone, Global Kids Online, London School of Economics)

«The chapters in the Mediated Youth Reader challenge our understandings of identity formation, global variations in how youth of different cultures live and interact with popular culture, and, especially, girls' diverse experiences with technology. These selections show the range of powerful ideas and interesting methodologies for studying youth cultures around the world...it is a fascinating volume.»
(Ellen Wartella, Al-Thani Professor of Communication and Director, Center on Media and Human Development, Northwestern University)
