Media Anthropology

Media anthropology is a field that studies how media influences and reflects cultures and societies. It examines the ways people use various forms of media—like television, social media, and films—to share stories, create identities, and communicate values. Media anthropologists explore how these interactions shape social norms and relationships, focusing on both the content and the context in which media is produced and consumed. By understanding these dynamics, they uncover deeper insights into human experiences and cultural interactions in a media-saturated world.
