Chair: Natalie Fenton, Department of Media and Communications, Goldsmiths. Mediatized Populisms: The Global South as Method 25 January 2018, 5-7pm, PSH 326 Disaggregating the idea of a singular media logic of poulist politics to explain the world through Trump and Brexit, we examine the institutional and political-economic dynamics of mediatisation and the variegated structures of media-political fields in which contemporary populists political formations are embedded. Moving away frombroad "global populism"approaches as well as case-studies from Europe and the Americas that have thus far dominated disucssions of populism, we make the case for empirically grounded comparative studies of populism from the particular standpoint of regional contexts in Asia, the MENA (Middle East and NOrth Africa) region and Latin America, to offer theoretical insights often missed in prevailing "technology first" and election-focuesed approaches. THIS EVENT IS FREE - ALL WELCOME I look forward to seeing you there.
