Reviews

The book offers an in-depth examination of the entanglements of media and time. A significant contribution of the edited volume is the multiplicity of contributions and perspectives exploring how time regimes and pressures affect people from different parts of the world.

Description

Digital media permeate every aspect of our lives, including our temporal perceptions. Time and attention have become one of the most precious resources, for users as well as corporate business. This book sheds light on these critical connections and how they influence not only our daily lives, but also how they exist in emerging power structures. It brings advances in the anthropological thinking about time into conversation with theorisations of media to develop an understanding of how media and time affect each other while keeping human experiences at the heart of the conversation.

Nina Grønlykke Mollerup is Associate Professor at the Department of Cross-Cultural and Regional Studies, University of Copenhagen. Her research investigates how images of violence are produced and how they are used to establish truths and narratives by following shifting understandings of images over time, particularly in relation to human rights and justice.

Birgit Bräuchler is Associate Professor in the Department of Anthropology at the University of Copenhagen. She is author of Cyberidentities at War (2013, Berghahn), The Cultural Dimension of Peace (2015, Palgrave), editor of Reconciling Indonesia (2009, Routledge), co-editor of Theorising Media and Conflict (2020, Berghahn) with Philipp Budka and has published widely in peer-reviewed journals.
