David Morley
"Note: see hard copy for full review "Home Territories: Media,
Mobility, and Identity is a rich and engaging book. David Morley
adroitly traces central connections between the rapidly changing
notions of identity, place, and belonging and the mediascapes
within which they (and we) circulate, take root, and dwell.
Morley is intellectually ecumenical yet erudite in his engagement
with urban geography, postmodernism, media studies, nationalism,
technology, and audiences in search for a way of talking about the
relationship between identity, media, and place.
Morley vividly describes and critically analyzes the operations,
meanings, relationship, and circuits in which we constantly move
near to and far from home. In this subtle and important book Morley
has given us much to think about and in the process helped to set
the tone and direction for the next generation of media
scholarship."
