"This thoroughly revised second edition provides a critical overview of the contemporary debates and discussions surrounding gender and mediated communication. The book is divided into three parts: representing, producing, and consuming with each section made up of three chapters. The first chapter of each section attempts to answer the most basic questions: 'Who is represented?', 'Who produces what?' and 'Who consumes what?'. The second chapter of each section draws attention to the complexity of the relationship between gender and media, concentrating on the 'why.' The third and final chapter of each section addresses the latest debates in the fields of media and gender, adding a vital layer of understanding of the topic at hand. This process is aided by text boxes, which provide some additional information on the most important concepts and topics and exercises, and help bridge the gap between theory and everyday life media practices. The second edition has been updated in the light of current developments with regard to gender, media technologies and globalisation, including recent theoretical insights and examples. This will be an ideal textbook for students studying gender and media, and for general courses on gender studies, sociology, cultural studies and women's studies"--

In dit boek worden ideeën en beelden onderzocht die populaire media zoals reclame, film en televisie verspreiden over vrouwen. Wat vertellen ons deze voorstellingen over de plaats en de rol die vrouwen innemen in onze samenleving ? Het zijn vooral de Amerikaanse media die hier onderzocht worden. Aan de hand van een kritische inhoudsanalyse van o.a. populaire televisieseries en films worden de opvattingen over vrouwen door een genderbril bekeken. Aandacht gaat ook naar de voorstellingen van zwarte vrouwen en Latina's in deze media.

Dit boek focust op de beeldvorming van vrouwen in de media. Het eerste deel behandelt hoe vrouwen, die actief zijn in de nationale politiek, gerepresenteerd worden in de media. Het tweede deel handelt over de communicatieve praktijken en de successen en mislukkingen van feministische bewegingen in verschillende delen van de wereld. Het laatste deel gaat over de 'talk show' en biedt een analyse waarmee nieuwe en problematische onderwerpen over de mediatisering van feministische belangen aangesneden worden.
