The topic should be about Globalisation and Communications
This module studies the role of the media (broadly understood to include all forms of telecommunications, the Internet and computers, print and televisual journalism, and all forms of audio and visual media) in the era of globalisation. The module will begin by investigating various forms of globalisation and by asking how it is explored through various registers. It focuses on the relations between globalisation and the media regarded through the lens of global political-economies, through cultures and their flows, and through the register of the symbolic. The module also addresses the specific role of the various media forms/formations in initiating, consolidating and sustaining both the idea and the practice of globalisation.
The module considers the risks, possibilities, hopes and anxieties circulating around the figure of globalisation, as it operates in the arena of media culture. This module delivers the necessary information and theoretical background for students to understand the key processes and dynamics of globalisation. More specifically, students are be asked to come to terms with the meaning of our current historical moment as it is expressed through the use of the term globalisation in a number of disciplinary fields (politics, economics, cultural studies, media studies, etc). The module is designed to encourage students to then relate the general conception of globalisation to particular case studies in media and culture.
