Описание:
Making Sense of Tourism: The Beckoning Horizon is the first in a unique series. It takes the style of a series of essays, drawing on the author's remarkable 45 years' experience in tourism and education. Academic journals have praised its level of scholarship and understanding of the wide range of subjects it discusses. General readers noted its readability and insights, backed up by cases and examples from the author's long professional career. Older opinions on tourism are often challenged, new interpretations introduced. Tourism is placed in the closely-integrated context of educational development and the rise of the mass media. New theories are developed.
Tourism is big business. Most people have regarded it as a purely leisure industry. They have called it a self-indulgent way of life replacing the 'real' industrial worlds of farms and factories. Yet tourism was actually used to create the great historic commercial and industrial revolutions. Today, it has the potential to bring about international understanding and peaceful progress.
This book is the first of a planned series of five. The second book. On the Move, about tourism transport in Britain and the USA between 1851 and 1941, is published on 1 September 2021.
Alan Machin brings a wide range of experiences to the task of 'making sense of tourism'. His working life ranged from marketing Shropshire's Ironbridge Gorge Museum to urban regeneration with Calderdale Council, West Yorkshire. He was a Senior Executive for a leading design company in Leeds. His career rounded out by teaching tourism management over 17 years at what is now Leeds Beckett University, inspiring students from all over the world. After retirement in 2009 he began to plan the Making Sense of Tourism series.
Описание: There are a variety of theoretical and methodological approaches to researching how film spectators make sense of film texts, from the film text itself, the psychological traits and sociocultural group memberships of the viewer, or even the location and surroundings of the viewer. However, we can only understand the agency of film spectators in situations of film spectatorship by studying actual spectators’ interactions with specific film texts in specific contexts of engagement. Making Sense of Cinema: Empirical Studies into Film Spectators and Spectatorship uses a number of empirical approaches (ethnography, focus groups, interviews, historical, qualitative experiment and physiological experiment) to consider how the film spectator makes sense of the text itself or the ways in which the text fits into his or her everyday life. With case studies ranging from preoccupations of queer and ageing men in Spanish and French cinema and comparative eye-tracking studies based on the two completely different soundscapes of Monsters Inc. and Saving Private Ryan to cult fanbase of the Lord of the Rings Trilogy and attachment theory to its fictional characters, Making Sense of Cinema aligns this subset of film studies with the larger fields of media reception studies, allowing for dialogue with the broader audience and reception studies field.

Описание:
This book offers a comprehensive framework for the study of moral panics. It provides an up-to-date overview of the history and development of the concept of panic, and discusses the key criticisms and debates that have stemmed from its use over the last four decades. While investigating the critical connections between crime reporting and panic development, Wright Monod also highlights the overall importance of social context, and social theory, for understanding episodes of moral panic.
Two case studies - one on murdering teens, and the other on gangs and guns - are explored to demonstrate the efficacy of the framework, and five research phases for panic study are extensively analysed. Drawing on the nature of sensationalist media coverage, and considering the impact of new media ecosystems in panic development, this innovative study considers the shape of the field of moral panic scholarship today and, crucially, the directions in which its study is heading. This is an
informed and original book which will appeal to scholars of risk, deviance, and criminal justice.
Описание: What is the use of research in public debates and policy-making on immigration and integration? Why are there such large gaps between migration debates and migration realities? This book provides a unique set of testimonies and analyses of these questions by researchers and public policy experts.
Описание: Through a genealogy of photosensitive elements in media devices and artworks, this book investigates three dichotomies that impoverish debates and proposals in media art: material/immaterial, organic/machinic, and theory/practice. It combines a historical and analytical approach, through new materialism, media archaeology, cultural techniques and second-order cybernetics. Known media stories are reframed from an alternative perspective, elucidating photosensitivity as a metonymy to provide guiding criteria to art students, artists, curators and theoreticians - especially those who are committed to critical views of scientific and technological knowledge in aesthetic experimentations.
