Sut Jhally

    Sut Jhally est un universitaire de premier plan à l'échelle mondiale qui examine le rôle de la publicité et de la culture populaire dans le contrôle social et la construction de l'identité. À travers ses nombreuses publications et ses films primés, il dissèque la manière dont les médias façonnent nos perceptions du genre, de la sexualité, de la race, du commercialisme, de la violence et de la politique. Le travail de Jhally explore en profondeur les mécanismes par lesquels les forces commerciales et les récits médiatiques façonnent nos croyances et nos valeurs. Son analyse offre un regard pénétrant sur l'interaction complexe entre les médias, la culture et le pouvoir dans la société contemporaine.

    • Now available in a significantly updated second edition featuring two new chapters, Social Communication in Advertising remains the most comprehensive historical study of advertising and its function within contemporary society. It traces advertising's influence within three key social domains: the new commodities industry; popular culture; and the mass media which manages the constellation of images that unifies all three.

      The Hollywood Presidency of Ronald Reagan was founded on the skills of the 'Great Communicator'; Bruce Springsteen's 'Born in the USA' is used by the Chrysler Corporation to assure us that the 'pride is back'; feminists and right-wing militants converge to oppose pornography; racial tensions increased when the Cosby show tops the ratings. This book is a radical attempt to lay out the complex ways in which the American media and American culture are powerfully interlocked.
