Title
Mix It Up: Popular Culture, Mass Media, and Society,Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
A nontextbook introduction to the social significance of popular culture and mass media. What accounts for the rise and fall of popular cultural trends? Why do Alist movie stars make so much money? How do television networks decide what programs to air? Do video games encourage violent behavior among young people, or do they make users smarter? Does advertising really work? In Mix It Up, David Grazian answers these questions and introduces students to a sociological perspective of popular culture and mass media.Based on the authors popular course at the University of Pennsylvania, Mix it Up focuses on the role of media and popular culture in everyday life, with a particular emphasis on the organization and functioning of the mass media industry; the increasingly blurry relationship between cultural consumption and production; and the social significance of leisure activities, from sports to shopping.Whether its DJ culture, YouTube videos, or mashups, Mix It Up takes an empirically driven (yet userfriendly) approach to examining media and pop culture from all corners of society. Writing in a nontextbook style, Grazian relies on a variety of theoretical perspectives and fleshes out his discussions with examples from empirical sociological studies as well as excerpts from field notes, facetoface interviews, and other research materials collected over the last decade.
