The Praxis of Social Inequality in Media: A Global Perspective provides a global analysis of the intersection of social inequalities, media, and communication. This volume contains chapters by an international array of scholars and provides case studies from various countries with critical empirical analysis of social inequalities and how they shape media narratives and experiences. The topics examined here include poverty in the media in Britain and Turkey, technology and inequality in Italy and Bangladesh, gender, inequality, and empowerment in India, Mexico, and Australia, and cross national analysis of rape culture, among others.
Jan Servaes is chair professor in the Department of Media and Communication at the City University of Hong Kong and UNESCO chair in communication for sustainable social change at the University of Massachusetts Amherst. Toks Oyedemi received his PhD from the University of Massachusetts Amherst.
