FAMST 189MS – SPORTS MEDIA

Details

Description

Explores the relationship between sport, media, and modernity through two critical lenses: first, how sport acts as a cultural apparatus mediating institutions, collective identities, and power structures of modern societies; second, how evolving media technologies (from print cultures to data-driven platforms) transform how sport is staged, performed, and experienced today. Thinking through the topics of colonialism, nationalism, race, gender, technology, and spectatorship, students examine how sport both expresses and structures the cultural dynamics of modern life.
