Outside and inside television: a dialogue on ‘value’

Corner, John; Roscoe, Jane

Abstract

© 2016 Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis Group. This is an exchange on questions of value from two distinct but overlapping perspectives on television. Among other things, it looks at the differences between academic and industry approaches to questions of quality and value and the way in which these approaches are changing. In what ways does the upsurge in production studies promise improved understanding and how is this growth connected with the traditions of textual and audience research? How is the steady transformation of television, as a multi-platform element of digital culture but also a sector of cultural production still framed by national as well as international policy contexts, shifting the way research relates to practice?
