Dan Brockington

Celebrity Advocacy and International Development (eBook, PDF)

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

The book examines the work of celebrity advocacy and lobbying in international poverty, inequality and development. Its purpose is to understand the alliances between celebrity and these good causes, how they function, their history, consequences, wider contexts and implications. It argues that we cannot understand the effects of celebrity advocacy or the growth of the celebrity-and-development industry without asking to whom it appeals and how it works.
