Short description:
No Limits maps the emergence of a mediatized world, and the role of media within contemporary indian society in 2019.
Long description:
ndia after globalization is an increasingly mediatized society. Today, media experiences, desires, dream worlds, and fears have enveloped our time with force that was unimagined before. The blurring of the private and the public is now dramatically visible. The 'power of media' is a core explanatory category in public and academic common sense. No Limits maps the emergence of this mediatized world, and reflects on its wideranging consequences.
Bringing together both notabe names in the field and emergent ones...No Lmits marks India's move from a major point of media exchange to a central node of media scholarship as well. [it is] an exciting and innovative volume, where content and context, audience and institution are as adjacent analyticaly as they are in actuality"
