We are living through a time when old identities - nation, culture and gender are melting down. Spaces of Identity examines the ways in which collective cultural identities are being reshaped under conditions of a post-modern geography and a communications environment of cable and satellite broadcasting.

We are living through a time when old identities - nation, culture and gender are melting down. This text examines the ways in which collective cultural identities are being reshaped under conditions of a postmodern geography and a communications environment of cable and satellite broadcasting.

This volume brings together David Morley and Charlotte Brunsdon's texts. Originally published in 1978 and 1980, Everyday Television: Nationwide and The Nationwide Audience were a record of textual readings and audience analysis of the BBCs leading current affairs news magazine Nationwide which ran from 1969 to 1984.

This work examines how traditional ideas of home, homeland and nation have been destabilized both by patterns of migration and by communication technologies which routinely transgress the symbolic boundaries around both the private household and the nation state. David Morley analyzes the varieties of exile, diaspora, displacement, connectedness and mobility experienced by members of social groups, and relates the micro-structures of the home, the family and the domestic realm, to contemporary debates about the nation, community and cultural identities. He explores issues such as the role of...

The concept of this text is that each piece of writing is a scientific paper of itself, a series of findings. The practices of writing science and poetry are a single discussion of perception carried out with the same eye and ear, and in the same laboratory of language.

A companion volume to the best-selling Mass Media and Society. this collection provides a lively and authoritative introduction to cultural studies, written by some of the most influential scholars and researchers in the field. It offers a critical guided tour of the key debates raised by feminism, postmodernism, the politics of identity, and theories of ideology. It goes beyond a narrow definition of cultural studies in terms of the audience to consider the entire communication circuit from production to consumption within a wider theoretical framework.
