Abstract
This podcast series project explores how media content circulates through various media channels, infrastructures, and industrial formations around the world. Examining a range of global media flows through the lens of recent work by scholars concerned with how global media industries operate according to distinct (yet frequently overlapping) disciplinary perspectives, this podcast series works to build a comparative understanding of how such industries function in various regions and global contexts. Each episode features a different author of a recent book engaged in questions concerning how texts, technologies, and geopolitics interact in different cultural and industrial settings. We ultimately invite listeners to consider the historical, political, economic, and social construction of media infrastructures, alongside their various regional and global industrial dynamics and influences.
