CST Conference 2022 Panel 13: Power and Television
CST Conference 2022 Panel 13: Power and Television
Power has always been an important aspect of our research into television.
[00:02:00] Laeed Zaghlami from Algiers University examined how the shifting configurations of television in Algeria impacts on the power of politicians. Emphasising the role of television to potentially enshrine a 'sacred image' of the politician-personality, he expressed his hopefulness as the time of monopoly television comes to an end.
[00:18:14] Gulnara Zakharova from the University of Paris 2, Pantheon Assas, examined the soft power of Russia Today in France. The channel is now defunct and banned in Europe. But before it was a key space for far-right criticism of the French presidency.
[00:35:58] The discussion panel was chaired by Mita Lad from Middlesex University.
