Umejei E: China in African Media

China in African Media

Between Influence Operations and Decolonization

Global Exploitation Cinemas

Discourses of cult cinema primarily centre around the West, with a particular emphasis upon Anglo-American cinema and fandom. Meanwhile, scholarship on world cinema privileges art cinema traditions and downplays those areas of popular cinema that intersect with cult. Global Cult Cinemas makes a decisive intervention by specifically addressing the transnational dynamics underpinning cult cinema. From studies of film reception that trace the international spread of cult film practices through to accounts of cult filmmaking traditions from a diverse range of film cultures, Global Cult Cinemas works towards the goal of de-Westernizing the discipline.

With contributors and topics from across the globe, Global Cult Cinemas explores this de-Westernization through filmmakers and current events such as Alejandro Jodorowsky in the era of #MeToo, cinephilia in Pakistan, and the reception of the Czech Crazy Comedy. While broadening the study of cult cinema beyond its predominant US focus, this book disrupts the realm of traditional cult cinema scholarship.

Global Cult Cinemas calls for a decolonisation of cult film studies. 
 
To date, discourses of cult cinema have predominantly focused upon Anglo-American cinema and its reception in the West. Even when cult scholarship has expanded to include non-English language cinema from regions such as East and Southeast Asia, what nevertheless tends to define these cinemas as cult has been the subcultural fandom for those films in the West. Shifting the focus onto cult film traditions and fandoms beyond the Anglosphere, Global Cult Cinemas makes a decisive intervention in the field by calling for a decolonisation of cult film studies. 
 
This volume therefore interrogates both the coloniality and gendered nature of much cult scholarship and the extent to which an implicit white male perspective needs challenging in an age of decolonising the academy. Our contributors focus their research on circuits of cult film production and reception beyond the predominant Anglophone centres, with particular attention to cult practices across the Global South. Chapters include investigations of specific cult film traditions within countries such as Brazil, Indonesia and Pakistan, alongside explorations of the politics of indigenous cult filmmaking, the global circulation of cult icons such as El Santo, and the status of auteurs such as Alejandro Jodorowsky in the era of #MeToo. In sum, this collection critiques the Eurocentric assumptions that lie at the heart of much existing cult film scholarship, and offers new ways of theorizing global cult cinemas to work towards the goal of decolonising cult film studies.

Decolonising Cult Film Studies

Global Cult Cinemas

In the overwhelming chaos across Asia at the end of the Second World War, one relatively minor issue was the future of the Japanese colony of Taiwan, a large island some one hundred miles off the coast of Fujian. Handed to the Kuomintang-ruled Republic of China, in 1949 it suddenly became the focus of global attention as a random cross-section of defeated Nationalists, including President Chiang Kai-shek, fled there from Mao's triumphant Communist forces. The Struggle for Taiwan is a balanced and convincing account of the sequence of events that has left Taiwan for generations as a political anomaly, with issues around its status and future continuing to threaten war. With deepening democratization, Taiwan further goads Beijing, remaining functionally independent from China even as Xi Jinping clamours for unification. This invaluable book allows readers to understand the complex story of this unique place and its role in international relations. With its striking economic dynamism and commitment to democracy, can Taiwan continue - as Hong Kong once did - to thrive, or will China conquer it? And will the world be able to maintain peace across the Taiwan Strait or will it stumble into war?

Routledge Studies in Environmental Communication and Media

This book explores twenty-first century environment-themed advertising with a global reach in relation to three key emerging persuasive themes: governance, morality and transnational rhetoric. Adopting a social semiotic approach, and exploring key examples including Greenpeace's "Everything is NOT Awesome" brandjacking advert, Volkswagen's "Think Blue" campaign and Unilever's "Why Bring a Child Into This World?" advert, Alexander puts forward a number of observations about the ideological character and function of environmental advertising as a new form of transnational persuasion.

Environmental Communication is a growing area of academic enquiry. But, whilst there are key texts on environmental communication and new texts on environment-themed media, there is, as yet, no book specifically devoted to "green" (environment themed) advertising. Filling this lacuna, this book explores twenty-first century environment-themed advertising with a global reach in relation to three key emerging persuasive themes: governance, morality and transnational rhetoric. Such environment-themed advertising with transnational reach, addressed to transnational publics and produced by global actors (from NGOs to multinationals to the United Nations to celebrities), is now a significant form of environmental communication. This book considers that form and its meanings; the "environmental imaginary" it builds in the minds of its publics, its ideological and emotional landscapes, and its limitations. Adopting a social semiotic approach, and exploring key examples including Greenpeace’s "Everything is NOT Awesome" brandjacking advert, Volkswagen’s "Think Blue" campaign and Unilever’s "Why Bring a Child Into This World?" advert, Alexander puts forward a number of observations about the ideological character and function of environmental advertising as a new form of transnational persuasion. The first book to explore the social and symbolic significance of "green" advertising as a transnational form of environmental communication, this book will be of great relevance to scholars and students with an interest in this growing field.

China ist eines der größten und ältesten Länder der Erde, das seinen Weg zwischen Tradition und Moderne sucht. Eine China-Reise gleicht immer noch einem Aufbruch in unbekannte Welten, und jede China-Erfahrung ist einzigartig. Dieser Reiseführer bietet eine ebenso kurzweilige wie fundierte Einführung in Geschichte, Kultur und Lebensweise des vielfältigen Landes. Er beschreibt ausführlich Touristenziele wie Beijing, Shanghai, den Yangzi, die alte Kaiserstadt Xian und den Süden, aber auch weniger bekannte Sehenswürdigkeiten. Neben ausführlichen Informationen über Land und Leute gibt es zahlreiche praktische Hinweise und Tipps sowohl für Individualtouristen als auch für Teilnehmer von organisierten Reisen. Die beiden Autoren sind studierte Sinologen und ausgewiesene Kenner des Landes, die jahrelange Erfahrung als Reiseveranstalter und Reiseleiter haben.

China ist eines der größten und ältesten Länder der Erde. Von der Seidenstraße zur Mandschurei, von Sichuan bis Honkong begeistert es mit einzigartigen Landschaften und unzähligen Sehenswürdigkeiten. Das CHINA HANDBUCH aus dem Trescher Verlag nimmt mit auf eine ebenso spannende wie informative Reise durch die Volksrepublik.
China sucht selbstbewusst seinen Weg zwischen Tradition und Moderne. In Jahrtausenden eigenständiger Entwicklung hat es eine faszinierende Kultur hervorgebracht, die sich stark auf uralte Traditionen stützt. Zugleich macht das Land eine rasante wirtschaftliche und gesellschaftliche Entwicklung durch. Eine China-Reise gleicht deshalb ‒ trotz der guten touristischen Infrastruktur ‒ immer noch einem Aufbruch in unbekannte Welten. 

Die versierten Sinologen und Reiseleiter Françoise Hauser und Volker Häring beschreiben im CHINA HANDBUCH alle wichtigen Sehenswürdigkeiten im Reich der Mitte. Dabei stellen sie nicht nur touristische Klassiker ausführlich vor: die Große Mauer und Beijing mit der Verbotenen Stadt, die Terrakotta-Armee und das Shaolin-Kloster, die alte Kaiserstadt Xian und das von Wolkenkratzern geprägte Shanghai, den Yangzi-Fluss mit den berühmten Drei Schluchten oder die Sonderverwaltungszone Hongkong. Sie führen auch in von Europäern noch wenig besuchte Regionen entlang der Seidenstraße, im Landesinneren und an den Küsten: darunter in die Oasenstadt Turfan am Beginn der Taklamakan-Wüste, in die paradiesische Bergwelt der Provinz Yunnan oder auf die Insel Hainan, wo weiße Palmenstrände auf Urlauber warten. 
Neben einer ebenso kompetenten wie kurzweiligen Einführung in Geschichte, Küche und Kultur bietet das CHINA HANDBUCH aus dem Trescher Verlag viel fundiertes Hintergrundwissen zu Geografie, Gesellschaft und Politik, zu Religionen und Volksglauben des vielfältigen, multiethnisches Landes. Es hält ausführliche praktische Hinweise und eine Fülle an Reisetipps sowohl für Individualtouristen als auch für Teilnehmende von organisierten Reisen parat. Zahlreiche Stadtpläne und Übersichtskarten sowie ein Sprachführer helfen bei der Orientierung und ergänzen das Buch zum allseits verlässlichen Begleiter auf Erkundungen im Reich der Mitte.
… weitere Reiseführer zum Fernen Osten finden Sie auf der Website des Trescher Verlags.

Bloomsbury Studies in Digital Cultures

Looking at the phenomenon of visibility labour and attention economies on social media, this open access book focuses on the Asia Pacific region to examine the use of 'drama' online for internet fame/infamy and financial gain. On social media, the attention economy shapes and governs our engagement. Social media actors use a variety of tactics to gain our attention, to 'go viral', and to become 'internet famous'. They manufacture extraordinary events, curate their lives for us to consume, and play on our emotions to draw us in. But relying on only the picture perfect, the pristine, and the prestigious a la 'aspirational' role-modelling is fast becoming stale to audiences in this very saturated space. Enter the use of 'online drama' to wrestle for the attention spans of audiences, when social media actors use discursive and visual narratives centred on angst, shock, fear, shame, pity to generate visibility, yield interest, and provoke conversations in the gladiatorial arena of social media. Through a range of lively case studies spanning platforms like Instagram, TikTok, Twitter, and YouTube, and popular online for a in the Asia Pacific region, this book explores topics such as 'shamelebrity', the 'influencer apology', 'call out culture', 'cancel culture', and 'meme factories' to unpack that peculiarly contemporary online phenomenon: the culture and economy of online drama.

A media scholar&nbsp;critically examines how US establishment media ran interference for Israel’s genocide in Gaza, with reporting that called the Flour Massacre “aid-related deaths,” and the Tent Massacre a “tragic mistake.” Over eight months, media coverage aligned with Israeli military narratives, condoning Israeli war crimes and the massacres of Palestinians as the world responded in outrage.
The Complicit Lens&nbsp;scrutinizes US media's portrayal of Israel’s war on Gaza post-October 7, 2023 Hamas attacks, contrasting it with social media reports and international news coverage. It reveals how reporting mystified Israeli bombings, used passive language to deflect blame, and repeated Israeli talking points. The analysis identifies consistent war tropes and atrocity propaganda—beheaded babies and mass rape—used to justify Israeli actions and obscure culpability.&nbsp;Israeli violence was presented as defensive and justified, either by the October 7 attacks, or by claims that Israel was targeting Hamas fighters and commanders not civilians. Later reporting included false claims that war crimes and massacres were mistakes or accidents.
The book&nbsp;documents the targeted killings of journalists and aid workers, underreported in US media, and critiques the editorial censorship that avoided terms like "genocide" and "massacre" for Palestinian deaths. As global protests against the Gaza genocide rose, the book also analyzes the biased media portrayal of these uprisings, particularly those led by young people and Jewish organizations. Examining specific incidents and language, the book exposes how media coverage facilitated the ongoing genocide in Gaza.&nbsp;
