Abstract "This book examines the effects of audiovisual streaming in the global South, offering a rare vantage point from which to examine the global streaming revolution. The essays illuminate the shifting media environments of relatively understudied contexts such as Brazil, Egypt, India, Lebanon, Philippines, and South Korea. The volume argues that the complexities of the global streaming landscape impel us to move beyond a simplistic theory of Western cultural imperialism imposed on the non-Western world and creates an intricate picture of contemporary media globalization, while reflecting on the changing cultural and political equation between the global North and South"-- Provided by publisher.
