Journal of Popular Television 12.1 is out now! Special Issue

Intellect is pleased to announce that Journal of Popular Television 12.1 is out now!

 

Special Issue: ‘Corporate Crime and Conspiracy in Contemporary Television’

 

The concept for this Special Issue started with a conversation at a conference several years ago, in which the editors noted the proliferation of series in the 2010s that explicitly addressed corporate misdeeds. Initially conceived as a book, it was temporarily delayed by circumstances, but the topic and material deserved to move forward; this Special Issue, we hope, offers new insights and analyses of corporate culture.
