Description

In a world ever more complex and media-saturated, what is the value of the truth? In this text, Toby Miller provides an examination of how television, magazines, film and museums influence the way our society conceptualizes such issues as citizenship, democracy, nationhood, globalization, truth and fiction. Along the way, he explicates connections between cultural objects and discourses, producing a new meeting ground for cultural, social and political theory.
