Omschrijving
This book examines social movements, the mainstream news media and public policy to expose the realities of trillion-dollar valued conglomerates, the pandemic and the presidency of Donald Trump.The author places his analysis within an international context which further develops a critical paradigm, called the Media Dependence Model.
Dr. Kennis’ academic pedigree is impressive, as is the fact that he’s chosen to conduct a significant portion of his work in academic contexts outside the United States. This, coupled with his extensive journalistic work in a variety of countries from a critical perspective, may help to make the work more engaging to an international audience.
Dr. Kennis writes in an accessible way (his background as a journalist helps here), and, with a case study approach that grounds concepts in a thick description of examples, this assures that undergrads may find his work approachable. Graduate students and scholars interested in journalism, digital media, international comm, and social movements would be drawn by the subject matter.
Dr. Andrew Kennis is an invited scholar affiliated with the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM) in Mexico City, where he serves as a coordinating member of a research collective based at the College of Political and Social Sciences (FCPyS). Dr. Kennis is also a nationally inducted researcher in a program (SNI) run under the auspices of Mexico’s National Council on Science and Technology (CONACyT). As a pedagogue, he currently teaches graduate-level classes at Rutgers University after having also taught at UNAM, Northwestern University, the University of Texas at El Paso and many other universities from both sides of the border. Dr. Kennis also continues to practice as an international and investigative journalist, having reported from locations ranging across four continents and dozens of countries while residing in Mexico City.
