The overall aim of this course is to introduce students to a number of different approaches to understand the interrelationship between processes of cultural globalisation and products of journalism and media. This includes the study of practices, production and reception contexts in which such products evolve. In addition to critically discussing these approaches, students will develop journalistic products in relation to these critical reflections. In accordance with the overall purpose of the Master’s degree, and with what the two preceding courses have prepared participants for, students will here be tested in combining journalistic skills with academic insights.
