By: Hermes, Joke [author.].
Publisher: London: Routledge, 2024Description: xi,198p.ISBN: 9781032265636; 9781032265629.Subject(s): Popular culture -- Case studies | Mass media -- Audiences -- Case studies | Belonging -- Case studiesDDC classification: 306 Summary: Written in an accessible and engaging style, this book uses a series of case studies to show how popular media are important to us, as a source of pleasure and entertainment, but also in communicating about the world with others. Social media platforms have changed how we talk about what we like and dislike in our popular media use. 'Cultural citizenship' shows how these discussions speak to 'belonging', to what we feel our rights and responsibilities are in today's polarized world. Cultural Citizenship and Popular Culture is based on audience-led research and does not privilege textual analysis as a starting point for taking popular media use's measure. Instead, it offers research tools to listen to others. This book offers scholars and students of media and creative industries a means to understand their professional position as one in which they engage with rather than assume to know what users of popular cultural texts and products think and feel
