This volume brings together the usually segregated areas of interpersonal and mass communication, and also incorporates work from sociology, psychology and women's studies. Each contributor examines our understanding of self both within a specific context of mediated culture and within a specific theoretical framework, such as critical theory, social constructionism, and feminism. 410 0$aInquiries in social construction. 606 $aIdentity (Psychology) 606 $aIndividuality 606 $aSelf$xSocial aspects 606 $aSelf 615 0$aIdentity (Psychology) 615 0$aIndividuality. 615 0$aSelf$xSocial aspects. 615 0$aSelf. 676 $a155.2 701 $aGrodin$b Debra$0144018 701 $aLindlof$b Thomas R$0143568 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910958313803321 996 $aConstructing the self in a mediated world$94415255 997 $aUNINA
