You will explore the meaning making, agency, the ‘coded communities’ (cultural depiction) and discursive power structure that informs both the production and consumption of media texts in a public sphere that is increasingly globalized. For the assignment the range of potential texts to analyse is wide, however we ask for an analysis narrow in focus, addressing specific concerns of development and/or social change – locally, transnationally and in the global North or South – and how these are articulated through the representational strategies deployed in the texts.
