<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">In this talk, Anna Cristina Pertierra and
Graeme Turner will discuss the series of projects that fed into, and emerged
from, their recent book Locating Television: Zones of Consumption (Routledge,
2013). Focused upon understanding the socio-cultural function of
television and new media in a number of national locations, the comparative dimension
of these projects has directly informed the development of the notion of ‘zones
of consumption’ as an alternative way of conceptualising how media are located.
Importantly, the book is also the product of a collaboration between cultural
studies and cultural anthropology; a discussion of that collaboration will be a
central focus of the presentation. </span></p>
