Concluding Remarks -- Bibliography. 330 $aHow are the structures of power and the notion of agency among Syrian women during the recent Syrian conflict connected? To explore this matter, Rand El Zein investigates gender politics around displacement, conflict, the body, and the nation. In doing so, she outstandingly reconciles critical media theory as myriad and productive with the theoretical concepts on subjectivity, power, performativity, neoliberalism, and humanitarian governance. The book examines how the Arab television news discursively represented the experiences of Syrian women during the conflict in relation to the four main concepts; violence, vulnerability, resilience, and resistance. 410 0$aCritical studies in media and communication. 517 $aBetween Violence, Vulnerability, Resilience and Resistance 606 $aTelevision programs 615 0$aTelevision programs. 676 $a791.456 700 $aZein$b Rand El$01353891 801 0$bNjHacI 801 1$bNjHacl 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910513700203321 996 $aBetween Violence, Vulnerability, Resilience and Resistance$93284059 997 $aUNINA
