Unique in its content and approach, this volume:
- Explores the act of reporting about culture: our own and others.
- Demonstrates how reports are constructed as deeply cultural forms, couched in points-of-view derived from one’s discursive habits and their meanings.
- Analyzes reporting done in professional practice/journalism as well as in common social routine.
Scholars and students in communication, intercultural/international studies, and related areas will find much to consider in this work.
