Beschreibung

<p><b>From the creator of the </b><b>viral</b><b> Kardashian Kolloquium comes a New Media manifesto for the TikTok age</b><b> - </b><b>blending theory, cultural analysis and history to explain the meteoric rise of the Kardashians and what their fame reveals about how media functions today.</b><br><br>Since 2007, Kim Kardashian and her extended family have mesmerised - and scandalised - the American public. We've been immersed in their social lives, controversies and reality TV exploits, while witnessing the staggering ascent of their multibillion-dollar fashion, beauty and media empire. But the central question remains: <i>why</i> are the Kardashians so famous? And what does their enduring relevance tell us about the media systems that shaped - and were shaped by - them?<br><br>In <i>Dekonstructing the Kardashians</i>, MJ Corey, creator of the viral social platform Kardashian Kolloquium, delivers more than just the definitive cultural chronicle of the First Family of reality TV. She offers a probing exploration of how media has evolved in the internet age -and how it's reshaping our identities, our attention, and our understanding of reality itself. Part media theory, part cultural critique and part historical deep-dive, <i>Dekonstructing the Kardashians</i> weaves together fifty years of Western media history.<br><br>Corey shows that the Kardashians aren't just celebrities - they're a mirror of our media moment, offering a key to understanding fame, identity and reality in the digital age.</p>
