Dieses Essential bietet einen Überblick zu unterschiedlichen Interpretationen der Verbindung zwischen Politik und Film. Filme und Fernsehserien werden dabei als wichtige Darstellungsformen von Politik begriffen. In zahlreichen Formaten wird dies in den letzten Jahren deutlich. Interessant wird es jedoch, wenn Filme und Serien nicht den Anspruch erheben politisch zu sein, dies jedoch implizit sind. Denn Filme spielen zum einen immer mit Vorannahmen des Publikums, produzieren andererseits aber auch spezifische politische Annahmen und Weltanschauungen bei ihrem Publikum. So sind beispielsweise Ängste oder gesellschaftlich verbreitete Feindbilder für die Wirkung von Filmen bedeutungsvoll. James Bond bekommt heute keine Liebesgrüße mehr aus Moskau, dafür rücken Cyberangriffe und die zunehmende Macht Chinas in den Mittelpunkt der Filmreihe. Der Inhalt Die Bedeutung des Films für die Betrachtung von Politik Filme als Spiegel der Gesellschaft Filme und politische Ängste Filme in der politischen Bildungsarbeit Die Zielgruppen Studierende und Lehrende der Politikwissenschaften und der Soziologie Praktiker aus Politik und Medien Der Autor Dr. Ulrich Hamenstädt ist wissenschaftlicher Mitarbeiter am Institut für Politikwissenschaft der Westfälischen Wilhelms-Universität Münster.

This book offers the first comprehensive study of recent, popular Italian television. Building on work in American television studies, audience and reception theory, and masculinity studies, Sympathetic Perpetrators and their Audiences on Italian Television examines how and why viewers are positioned to engage emotionally with—and root for—Italian television antiheroes. Italy’s most popular exported series feature alluring and attractive criminal antiheroes, offer fictionalized accounts of historical events or figures, and highlight the routine violence of daily life in the mafia, the police force, and the political sphere. Renga argues that Italian broadcasters have made an international name for themselves by presenting dark and violent subjects in formats that are visually pleasurable and, for many across the globe, highly addictive. Taken as a whole, this book investigates what recent Italian perpetrator television can teach us about television audiences, and our viewing habits and preferences.
