Description
TV China explores the complex and evolving landscape of television in China. This collection of essays examines various aspects of Chinese television, including its role in shaping public space, its impact on consumer identity, and its global circulation. Contributors from around the world offer diverse perspectives on the development of Chinese television, from its early days to its current status as a major player in the global media landscape. Topics range from the reform years to the making of new diasporic imaginaries, and from mediation journalism to transnational circulation of Chinese-language dramas. Through their analysis, the authors shed light on the ways in which television reflects and shapes societal values, cultural norms, and economic trends in China.
