However, there is little understanding of how and why representations of race in the media take the shape that they do. How, one might ask, is race created by cultural industries?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn this important new book, Anamik Saha encourages readers to focus on the production of representations of racial and ethnic minorities in film, television, music, and the arts.

This reveals how political economic forces and legacies of empire shape industrial cultural production and, in turn, media discourses around race.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eRace and the Cultural Industries\u003c\/em\u003e is required reading for students and scholars of media and cultural studies, as well as anyone interested in why historical representations of 'the Other' persist in the media and how they are to be challenged.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Unknown","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47597556334828,"sku":"9781509505319","price":40.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/9781509505319-race-and-the-cultural-industries.jpg?v=1777957625","url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/products\/race-and-the-cultural-industries-by-anamik-saha-9781509505319","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
