Representing Race: Ideology, Identity and the Media (Paperback)

'This challenging text offers a detailed, nuanced critique of the operations of ideology in the construction and maintenance of racial hierarchies. Divided into one section on theoretical considerations, and another focused on lucid analyses of media case studies, the book offers us the tools for rethinking the complex relationship between 'race', ideology, and media representations.' Lola Young, Professor of Cultural Studies, Middlesex University 'This is the most illuminating analysis I have read on media use, misuse and default in regard to race and ideology. It should be required reading for all writers, broadcasters and film producers.' Donald Woods, Author of 'Asking for Trouble' 'There is much to admire in this work...the overall approach is convincing and promising...' European Journal of Communication
