The People We Watch explores the politics of contemporary media production from the point of view of the ordinary people it represents.

Based upon a series of in-depth interviews and the authors own professional experience of working in the television industry, this book examines how documentary contributors feel about participating in the media and the ways they are portrayed, considering how their experiences take shape within the structural context of the cultural industries.

This insightful text will interest scholars, students, and researchers in media and communication, sociology of the media, documentary studies, and film studies, as well as those studying the cultural industries, media production, creative labour, and cultural policy.

Recenzijas

The People We Watch opens up a brilliant and nuanced interrogation of the documentary subject at the heart of contemporary television production through careful empirical research with the voices of participants and crew. Given the current spotlight on the treatment of those involved in making television, read this book to understand the important ethical and civic questions at stake for the industry and for future research.

Helen Wood, Professor of Media and Cultural Studies, University of Aston, Birmingham

This wonderful study breaks new ground by listening to the ordinary people who contribute to factual television. Its an extraordinarily skilful and important contribution to media industry studies and to documentary scholarship.

David Hesmondhalgh, Professor of Media, Music and Culture, University of Leeds

"The People We Watch is a meticulously researched, sensitive look at the making of documentary television programmes and the oft-neglected perspectives of the ordinary people who agree to appear in them. This book is a gem for scholars, producers, and lovers of nonfiction media."

Ruth Palmer, Associate Professor of Communication, IE University, Madrid
