Overview
This book explores the changing portrayal of leading female characters in 21st Century security TV - shows set behind the scenes of democratic regimes facing multifaceted threats, from jihadist terrorism to health risks.
Offering an in-depth examination of several case studies, the authors speak to a larger debate on the differences of women's representations in security TV series within and between geographical and cultural areas. Beginning with a definition of this popular genre of TV series and highlighting its specificities, the book brings together researchers from media studies, humanities, and gender studies to interrogate new forms of visibility of female figures in popular culture.
This book will appeal to scholars, postgraduate students, and research students working in film studies, media studies, popular culture studies, gender studies, philosophy, and sociology.
