Taylor & Francis Ltd South African National Cinema
Book SynopsisSouth African National Cinema examines how cinema in South Africa represents national identities, particularly with regard to race. This significant and unique contribution establishes interrelationships between South African cinema and key points in South Africa's history, showing how cinema figures in the making, entrenching and undoing of apartheid. This study spans the twentieth century and beyond through detailed analyses of selected films, beginning with De Voortrekkers (1916) through to Mapantsula (1988) and films produced post apartheid, including Drum (2004), Tsotsi (2005) and Zulu Love Letter (2004).Jacqueline Maingard discusses how cinema reproduced and constructed a white national identity, taking readers through cinema's role in building white Afrikaner nationalism in the 1930s and 1940s. She then moves to examine film culture and modernity in the development of black audiences from the 1920s to the 195Table of ContentsList of Figures Acknowledgements Introduction Chapter 1: Colonizing ‘Nation’: De Voortrekkers (1916) Chapter 2: Fictions of Nation: The Symbol of Sacrifice (1918), Sarie Marais (1931) and Moedertjie (1931) Chapter 3: Monuments to Nation: They Built a Nation (1938) and ’n Nasie Hou Koers (1940) Chapter 4: Black Audiences 1920s - 1950s: film culture and modernity Chapter 5: All That Jazz: representing black identities in Zonk!

Taylor & Francis Ltd Financial Fragility and Instability in Indonesia
Book SynopsisThis highly relevant study provides an incisive analysis of a critical phase in recent East Asian financial history, exploring the underlying causes of the financial crisis that struck Indonesia during the second half of 1997. Matsumoto's extensive commercial experience in Indonesian finance during these critical years, allows him to skilfully argue that the roots of the crisis lay in the period of capital liberalization undertaken during the boom years from 1994 to 1997 which encouraged the development of fragile and unstable financial structures, involving increased corporate leverage, reliance on external debt, and the introduction of riskier and more complicated financial instruments and transactions.In-depth fieldwork data and four detailed case studies illuminate the microeconomic foundations of the crisis, showing how Indonesian capitalists sought to liquidate their Indonesian assets without losing control of their corporate empires, by taking advantage of increTable of ContentsIntroduction 1. Indonesia’s External Debt Problem in the 1990s 2. Minsky’s Financial Instability Hypothesis - Interpretation and Critical Adjustments for the Asian Context 3.

Taylor & Francis Ltd Pulling Newspapers Apart
Book SynopsisPulling Newspapers Apart: Analysing Print Journalism explores contemporary UK national and local newspapers at a significant and pivotal moment in their development when some pundits are busily, if mistakenly, announcing their demise. The book offers a detailed examination of features which previous studies have tended to neglect, such as editorial formats (News, Op Ed pages, readers' letters, cartoons, obituaries, advice columns, features and opinion columns), aspects of newspaper design (page layout, photographs, supplements, online editions, headlines, the emergence of the compact and Berliner editions), newspaper contents (sport, sex and Page 3, royalty, crime, moral panics and politics) as well as the content of newspapers which is not generated by in house journalists (advertising, TV listings, horoscopes, agency copy and public relations materials). This innovative and accessibly written collection provides journalism and media students with an inTable of ContentsIntroduction UK Newspapers; Trends and Developments BOB FRANKLIN PART 1 Editorial Formats 1 News JACKIE HARRISON 2 Features SARAH NIBLOCK 3 Readers’ Letters JOHN RICHARDSON 4 Op Ed pages KARIN WAHL-JORGENSEN 5 Cartoons COLIN SEYMOURE-URE 6 Obituaries NIGEL STARCK 7 Advice Columnists ANGELA PHILLIPS 8 I, Columnist BRIAN McNAIR PART 2 Editorial Contents 9 Post Ironic Page 3; porn for the plebs KAREN ROSS 10 The Monarchy ROS COWARD 11 Crime Reporting CLAIRE WARDLE 12 Sport Journalism: Persistent themes and changing times ALAN THOMLINSON AND JOHN SUGDEN 13 Moral Panics and Newspaper Coverage of Binge Drinking CHAS CRITCHER 14 Politics and the Press NICHOLAS JONES PART 3 Newspaper Design 15 Compacts PETER COLE 16 Photography in Newspapers EAMONN McCABE 17 Supplements NICHOLAS BRETT and TIM HOLMES 18 Page layout and Design MARK TATTERSALL 19 Online Editions; Newspapers and the New News JIM HALL 20 Headlines EAMONN RAFFERTY Part 4 Non Editorial Contents 21 Advertising PETER MEECH 22 TV Pages JOHN ELLIS 23 Horoscopes And Popular Culture NICHOLAS CAMPION 24 The Press Association and News Agency Sources PAUL MANNING 25 Public Relations in the News AERON DAVIS
