Taking as a starting point proposed definitions of 'race', ethnicity, and their media representation, Downing and Husband draw upon their own and others' research in a variety of locations - the UK, the USA, the Nordic nations, Australia, Russia, Latin America and elsewhere - to review a series of new or relatively untapped dimensions for anti-racist media research. These include indigenous people's media, video games, ultra-rightist media, and a fresh reading of the public sphere concept. The range of topics addressed and their comparative treatment move this book's analysis beyond the standard British and American research narrative, while engaging critically with its achievements and shortcomings.

Industry Reviews
Well-informed, thoughtful and transnational in its perspectives, Downing and Husband|s work is likely to become the key text in the field. The book is essential reading for anyone interested in the politics of race and representation. Professor Daya K. Thussu University of Westminster, UK "It succeeds on all levels as a key text in exploring the issues of depiction of race and ethnicity in media and the combating of mediated racism." -COMMUNICATION RESEARCH TRENDS -- Patrick L.
