An interesting and engaging new contribution to the study of ‘sexy violence’. At a moment when boundaries between public and private, bodies and technologies, and media producers and consumers are breaking down, Parikka brings a fresh perspective to debates about gender and the media, with a strong focus on globalization.— Rosalind Gill, Professor of Cultural and Social Analysis at City, University of London
Globalization, Gender, and Media: Formations of the Sexual and Violence in Understanding Globalization is an exhaustively researched , intellectually challenging , and emotionally deep collection of case study analyses that wrestles with the way images of what Tuija Parikka labels "sexy violence". The work feels worthy of graduate study, particularly for those students hungry to learn the master craft of deep analysis.
