Going beyond the conventional cross-cultural studies of mainstream media consumption, this book focuses on the ethnic community as a determining force in negotiating new hybrid identities and cultures.Each community was the subject of in-depth field study, and the findings demonstrate diasporic experiences which are common to ethnic communities worldwide.Floating Lives makes available information and a deeper understanding for the analysis of: industries which have evolved to service Asian communities, such as music video, cinema and video retail outletsthe cultural dynamics of the material produced for and consumed by the communitiespolicy implications for cultural industries outside the mainstream |
