The Logics of Globalization: Case Studies in International Communication
This book presents the theoretical language and methodological tools needed for thinking through issues of global media representation. It brings students of international communication into a conversation about global culture and communication through the presentation of a conceptual language to discuss the 'logics of globalization' (i.e. nationalism, modernism, post-modernism/colonialism, capitalism and terrorism). Anandam Kavoori then uses thi…

Mapping a critical framework for the study of travel journalism
This article provides a programmatic framework for the investigation of travel journalism. We argue that travel journalism is an important site for studying the ideological dimensions of tourism, transcultural encounters and the ongoing dynamics of media globalization. Based on the literature on tourism in sociology, anthropology and cultural studies, we identify three distinct but interrelated theoretical perspectives for the analysis of travel …

At the audience level there is the emergence of a global culture of critical media consumption. This ref…

Constructing the ‘national’ on Indian television news
This conceptual essay explores how television news articulates an image of the ‘national’ in an age of commercial liberalisation. Using India as the example, it specifically examines how (a) national politics is covered by four different TV news broadcasts and (b) the cultural and ideological function of these broadcasts. It is argued that the ‘national’ is a segmented discourse, speaking either to a national culture that has the political intere…
Global Texts, Narrativity and the Construction of Local and Global Meanings in Television News
This article discusses the relevance of narrative analysis to the study of media globalization by presenting results of an ongoing study of television news in the United States, Europe, and the Middle East. It discusses issues of local and global meanings by focusing on a number of elements of narrative structure (time, valence, story/discourse, themes, drama, genre, and myths) and argues that each element presents ways to track particularistic a…
