It reveals how the new visibility of class matters in serial television functions aesthetically and examines the cultural class politics articulated in these programmes. This ground-breaking volume argues that reality and quality TV’s intricate politics of class entices viewers not only to grapple with previously invisible socio-economic realities but also to reconsider their class alignment. The stereotypical ways of framing class are now supplemented by those dedicated to exposing the economic and socio-psychological burdens of the (lower) middle class. The case studies in this book demonstrate how sophisticated narrative techniques coincide with equally complex ways of exposing class divisions in contemporary American life and how the examined shows disrupt the hegemonic order of class. The volume therefore also invites a rethinking of conventional models of social stratification. .Motion pictures and televisionMotion picturesCommunicationEthnologyScreen Studieshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/413000Film Theoryhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/413090Media and Communicationhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/412010Cultural Anthropologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/411060Motion pictures and television.Motion pictures.Communication.Ethnology.Screen Studies.Film Theory.Media and Communication.Cultural Anthropology.791.4Lemke Sieglindeedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtSchniedermann Wibkeedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBOOK9910156184203321Class Divisions in Serial Television2515560UNINA
