Do the media help democratic society to function for the benefit of all, or for the few? And how does the media influence our formation of social identities? Inspired by the work of Elihu Katz, "Media, Ritual and Identity" examines the role of media in society and its influence on democratic processes. It draws extensively on cultural anthropology, combining a commanding overview of contemporary media debates with a series of fascinating case studies from political ritual on television to broadcasting in the Third World. A cutting-edge look at new developments in the field, edia, Ritual and Identity shines new light on the pivotal role of the media in today's world.
