Narrating the Nation: Television Narratives and National Identities
Reus (Catalonia), 4-5 October 2007
The congress aimed to bring together scholars researching the processes of national identity building in relation to television narratives and the ways in which national identity is reflected in and itself influences television programs in content and form. Thus, this event was an opportunity to strengthen international relations in a field in which scholars often work solely or primarily within their own national social, political and media contexts.
