<p>Our relationship with the past-whether judgment, celebration, commemoration or denial-has become an important part of public culture. This book explores the relationship between televisual communication and memory-focusing on the conflicts that have disrupted and changed our world over the past 50 years-with particular reference to the current war in Iraq. </p><p>Case studies cover the Holocaust, Vietnam, both Gulf Wars and Kosovo. Though the Vietnam War was extensively televised, it was framed within a domestic U.S. context. By the time of the latest Gulf War and Kosovo the coverage of warfare was both more immediate and more global. Hoskins illustrates this with a comparative critique of individual countries' national media framing of war (including Middle Eastern perspectives) in contrast to the so-called "global" viewpoint of satellite news networks such as CNN. </p><p>Televising War examines the intertwining of self, society and media that influences our understanding of both past and present.</p>
