Constructing the Child Viewer: A History of the American Discourse on Television and Children, 1950-1980
Editorial Reviews
Review
“For those interested in the topic matter, Constructing the Child Viewer is a handy reference book with an outstanding literature review.”–Journal of Comparative Family Studies
Book Description
Beginning from a poststructuralist position, Constructing the Child Viewer examines three decades of U.S. research on television and children. The book concludes that historical concepts of the child television viewer are products of discourse and cannot be taken to reflect objective, scientific truths about the child viewer. Nearly all academic studies published from 1948 to 1979 on the subject are included in this volume. Each receives close textual analysis, making this a useful bibliographic resource and reference book.
