Content
Contents
This module enables students to expand on the knowledge they have acquired during the Global Media Industries course by way of an independent literature study. Students will independently study scholarly literature that supplements the material covered during the course and write a report in which they position the texts within their relevant scholarly contexts, taking into account the authors’ academic background, the context of publication, as well as the methodological and theoretical frameworks applied.
