Produktbeschreibung
Using oral history, ethnography, and close readings of media texts, Sarah C. Bishop probes the myriad and sometimes conflicting ways refugees interpret and use mediated representations of life in America. Guided by seventy-four different narrators from Bhutan, Burma, Iraq and Somalia, US Media and Migration explores answers to questions such as: What does one learn from media about an unfamiliar place? How does media help or hinder refugees' sense of belonging after relocation? And, how does the US government use media to shape refugees' understanding of American norms, standards, and ideals? Through interviews with both refugees and resettlement administrators, Bishop provides a compelling and layered analysis of the interaction between refugees and US media before, during, and long after resettlement.
