The focus lies on the ways in which emotions are appropriated and disciplined by regimes of power and identity, and the ways in which affect - in this case primarily kuqing (bitter emotions) communicated by the material and the body - have the potential to challenge or exceed existing relations of power in the mediascape. Wei Dong shows how Chinese reality TV provides a historical and theoretical opportunity for understanding the affective structures of contemporary China in the dynamic process of fracture and integration.Critical Studies in Media and Communication SeriesCultural Politics of Affect and EmotionReality television programsAffectEmotionChinaReality TVPopular CultureTelevisionSocietyCultureSociology of MediaMedia StudiesReality television programs.791.456Dong Wei1266592BMBF Fördervorhaben 16TOA002fndhttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/fndNjHacINjHaclBOOK996487172403316The cultural politics of affect and emotion2975019UNISA
