Crossover Cinema
Cross-Cultural Film from Production
to Reception
Edited by sukhmani Khorana, University of
Queensland, Australia
Series: Routledge Advances in Film Studies
Cinematic products in the twenty-first century
increasingly emerge from, engage with, and are
consumed in cross-cultural settings. This volume
contends that “crossover cinema” is the most apt
contemporary description for those aspects of
contemporary cinema on which it focuses. Each of the
three sections of the volume considers crossover film
from one of three perspectives: production, the texts
themselves, and distribution and consumption.

Conflict
Blogging and the BBC’s Coverage of War
and Terrorism
Daniel bennett
Series: Routledge Research in Journalism
Informed by the views of over 100 BBC staff at all
levels of the corporation, in this book Bennett
captures journalists’ shifting attitudes towards blogs
and internet sources used to cover wars and other
conflicts. While the focus of the book is on the BBC’s
coverage of war and terrorism, the conclusions are
more widely relevant to the evolving practice of
journalism at traditional media organizations as they
grapple with a revolution in publication.

lifestyle Journalism
Edited by Folker hanusch, University of the
Sunshine Coast, Australia
Series: Journalism Studies
Lifestyle journalism has experienced enormous growth
in the media over the past two decades, but scholars
in the fields of journalism and communication studies
have so far paid relatively little attention to a field that
is still sometimes seen as “not real journalism”. There
is now an urgent need for in-depth exploration and
contextualisation of this field, with its increasing
relevance for 21st century consumer cultures. This
book presents a wide range of studies which have
engaged with the field of lifestyle journalism in order
to outline the various political, economic, social and
cultural tensions within it. It was originally published
as a special issue of Journalism Practice.
