Description
Race and the Cultural Industries explores how representations of racial and ethnic minorities in film, television, music, and the arts are created by cultural industries. Anamik Saha's interdisciplinary approach combines critical media studies, media industries research, postcolonial studies, and critical race perspectives to examine how political economic forces and legacies of empire shape industrial cultural production and media discourses around race.
This book is essential reading for students and scholars of media and cultural studies, as well as anyone interested in understanding why historical representations of 'the Other' persist in the media and how they can be challenged. By shedding light on the production of these representations, Saha provides a nuanced analysis of the complex relationships between power, culture, and identity.
