Kids' Media Culture (Consoleing Passions),New
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Television shows, comic strips, video games, and other forms of media directed at children are the subject of frequent and rancorous debate. In Kids Media Culture some of the most prominent cultural theorists of childrens media join forces with exciting new voices in the field to consider the production and consumption of media aimed at children. Whats good for kids and whats merely exploitive? Are shows that attempt to level the socioeconomic playing field by educating children effective? The essays in this anthology tackle these questions and pose provocative new questions of their own.As part of their argument that childrens reactions to mass media are far more complex and dynamic than previously thought, contributors examine the rise of mass media in postwar America. They explore how books, cartoons, and television shows of the 1950s and 1960ssuch as Lassie and Dennis the Menacehelped redefine American identity and export an image of a particularly American optimism and innocence worldwide. Other essays take up the controversies surrounding such shows as Sesame Street, My SoCalled Life, and Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. After discussing the differences in how children and adults react to such programs, the collection focuses on television in schools and the ways that mass media convey messages about gender and socialization.Kids Media Culture makes clear that children are active, engaged participants in the media culture surrounding them. This volume will be compelling reading for those interested in television and cultural studies as well as anyone interested in childrens education and welfare.Contributors.
