Taking a unique approach to the study of mass communication and cultural studies, MediaMaking is a volume that presents the current knowledge about the relationship between media, culture, and society. What sets this volume apart from competing texts is the approach taken and the distinguished scholarship. Rather than examining each major medium separately (newspapers, books, magazines, radio, television, film), the authors contend that mass communication cannot be studied apart from the other institutions in society and the other dimensions of social life-each is shaping and defining the other. They hold that media can only be understood in relation to their context-institutional, economic, social, cultural, and historical. As such, this book explores the variety of ways in which the media are involved in our social lives. The authors explore the different relationships between the media and the systems of social value and social differences that organize power in contemporary society. They examine how the media are reproduced and consumed and what they produce in turn. Theoretically and analytically organized with sections on media′s relation to behavior, politics, media effects, the public, globalization, organizations, meaning , and ideology, this text offers students a more comprehensive understanding of the nature of media communication processes-an absolutely necessary part of understanding contemporary life.

American Mass Media and Popular Culture addresses the impact mass media have on American popular culture, and exposes the reader to a range of voices and perspectives on media issues and effects. The anthology helps students examine popular culture from both critical and empirical perspectives. In particular, students explore the persuasive effects of various new media. The 26 essays are organized into three parts. The first part of the text provides guiding principles, theories and perspectives that can be used to examine the power of American mass media. The second section covers topics in popular culture such as romance, love, and sex, and examines how the socialization effects of television shape viewers' attitudes, values, and ideals towards these topics. The third part of the book focuses on new media and their impacts, which range from teen emancipation to romantic communication through social media such as MySpace and Facebook. American Mass Media and Popular Culture effectively supplements main texts in mass media and mass communication courses. The material empowers readers to become more than passive users and consumers of mass media, and helps them gain true awareness of how they as individuals, and society as a whole, are influenced by these important social forces.

"On subjects from Superman to rock 'n' roll, from Donald Duck to the TV news, from soap operas and romance novels to the use of double speak in advertising, these lively essays offer students of contemporary media a comprehensive counterstatement to the conservatism that has been ascendant since the seventies in American politics and cultural criticism. Donald Lazere brings together selections from nearly forty of the most prominent marxist, feminist, and other leftist critics of American mass culture--from a dozen academic disciplines and fields of media activism. The collection will appeal to a wide range of students, scholars, and general readers." -- Book Jacket.
