Floating Lives is a unique examination of media and communication within diasporic ethnic communities, using in-depth studies of some of Australia's main Asian diasporic groups: the Chinese, Indian, Vietnamese, and Thai communities. Going beyond conventional cross-cultural studies of mainstream media consumption, this book explores the ethnic community as a determining force in negotiating new hybrid identities and cultures—and demonstrates experiences common to diasporic communities worldwide.

Focusing upon the development of television industries in countries throughout the world, this text challenges the view that "cultural imperialism" from powerful metropolitan centres dictates the supply of television programmes and services

Peripheral Vision

New Patterns in Global Television

Latin American Television makes English speakers aware of the dimensions, operation, and significance of the globalization of television in the Spanish-speaking world. Second only in scale to the market for English-language programming, the Spanish-language market embraces not just most nations of South and Central America but also Spain, and even the United States—the sixth largest Spanish-speaking country in the world. This intercontinental space is connected physically by satellite communication, and culturally by a common language and heritage which binds it as both a `geolinguistic region' and an `imagined community' which certain media corporations, Latin American and North American, seek to exploit. A similar phenomenon with regard to Brazil and the Portuguese-speaking world is also examined, with special attention to its comparable features and points of exchange with the Spanish-speaking world. The book chronicles and analyses the development and structure of the globalization of these markets as a `Latin world'.

The rise of China has brought about a dramatic increase in the rate of migration from mainland China. At the same time, the Chinese government has embarked on a full-scale push for the internationalisation of Chinese media and culture. Media and communication have therefore become crucial factors in shaping the increasingly fraught politics of transnational Chinese communities. This book explores the changing nature of these communities, and reveals their dynamic and complex relationship to the media in a range of countries worldwide. Overall, the book highlights a number of ways in which China’s "going global" policy interacts with other factors in significantly reshaping the content and contours of the diasporic Chinese media landscape. In doing so, this book constitutes a major rethinking of Chinese transnationalism in the twenty-first century.

Concord is a grammatical term in linguistics referring to the relationship between words whereby a form of one word requires a corresponding form of another eg the rules governing the singular and plural of 'he walks' as opposed to 'they walk'. This book describes the processes involved when we read concordances, using real life examples taken from spoken English corpuses (The Bank of English and Cobuild Corpuses). The book is a practical volume, providing exercises and examples taken from corpora as each topic is introduced. The reader is encouraged to build on their knowledge as they are taken through the topics step-by step so that eventually they can form a working hypothesis enabling them to make interesting linguistic observations.
