This book, the first of its kind, brings together leading scholars from multiple perspectives in a serious dialogue about continuity and change in global media production and content. Looking at a wide swath of the world, these authors show the emergence of transnational collaboration in global television and film production across national borders that seem to transcend national cultures and identities. At the same time, traditional class analysis of such phenomena is reframed within the rise of myriad social movements for equality, democracy, human rights, and defense of the environment. What are the effects of media, local or global? Does the West continue to dominate or is cultural imperialism waning? With original chapters written by leading scholars from a variety of disciplines, this book will appeal to students and scholars interested in global media communication, cultural studies, and international political economy.

Dos jóvenes periodistas en paro, hartos de la situación laboral en España, cogieron la calculadora y echaron cuentas: 6.000 € en alquiler, 1.340 € en gasolina, la luz, el agua, el transporte… y ningún ingreso. Costaba más caro quedarse de brazos cruzados en casa que recorrer el mundo. Y decidieron, durante nueve meses y a lo largo y ancho de 28 países, hacer realidad su sueño: dar la vuelta al planeta y mandar todo… ¡A tomar por mundo!. Dijeron adiós a la rutina. Se colgaron la mochila a sus espaldas. Y salieron en busca de oportunidades a descubrir nuevos países, a zambullirse en su cultura y terminar la aventura casándose en una idílica playa de Bali. Todo ello con un presupuesto de sólo 20 € al día por persona. En este libro cuentan todas sus historias, trucos y secretos para hacer que un gran viaje sea más barato que vivir en España. ¿Viajamos?

Uncovering class divisions, racial conflicts, and tangled emotions, this gritty, shocking novel of suspense heralds the arrival of a major new talent. Henning Juul is a veteran investigative crime reporter in Oslo, Norway. A horrific fire killed his six-year-old son, cut scars across his face, and ended his marriage, and on his first day back at the job after the terrible tragedy a body is discovered in one of the city’s public parks. A beautiful female college student has been stoned to death and buried up to her neck, her body left bloody and exposed. The brutality of the crime shakes the whole country, but despite his own recent trauma – and the fact that his ex-wife’s new boyfriend is also on the case - Henning is given the assignment. When the victim’s boyfriend, a Pakistani native, is arrested, Henning feels certain the man is innocent. This was not simply a Middle Eastern-style honor killing in the face of adultery – it was a far more complicated gesture, and one that will drag Henning into a darkness he’s never dreamed of.
