| Abstract | "Drawing from the wealth of academic literature about Eurovision written over the last two decades, this book consolidates and recognizes Eurovision's relevance in academia by analysing its contribution to different fields of study. The book brings together leading Eurovision scholars from across disciplines and from across the globe to reflect on the intersection between their academic fields of study and the Eurovision Song Contest by answering the question: What has Eurovision contributed to academia? The book also draws from fields rarely associated with Eurovision, such as Law, Business and Research Methodologies, to demonstrate the song contest's broad utility in research, pedagogy and in practice. Given its interdisciplinary approach, this volume will be of interest to scholars and students working in cultural, media, and communication studies, as well as those interested in the intersections of culture, media, nationalism, education, pedagogy, and history"-- Provided by publisher. |
