  • Qatar Diaspora: Cultural Identity and Media Consumption
    Global Media Journal, Indian Edition January 2018 Manipal Academy of Higher Education, Manipal Title: A study of the Malayalee- Qatar Diaspora: Cultural Identity and media consumption First Author: Ms. Jinu Jacob. She is a student pursuing her masters in media and communication at School of Communication, Manipal Academy of Higher Education(MAHE), Manipal, India. Her area of interests include diasporic media preferences, media audiences and cultural identity . She is an Indian who is a resident of Qatar for the past 23 years.Email id : [email protected], ph: 9902480132 Corresponding Author: Ms.Manjula Venkataraghavan, Assistant Professor, School of Communication, Manipal Academy of Higher Education, Manipal, India.She has been teaching media subjects for the past ten years . The areas that interest her includes scope of new media technologies in the health sector as well as new media effects on children and adolescents. Email id:[email protected], ph : 9902098241. Abstract Media plays an important role in the reconstruction of cultural identities of the diaspora and helps negotiate a borderline existence between the home country and the host country. The diasporic identity is constructed through the use of media and the identity that they carried with them to the new host country. The polarities of the physical connection to the place that they currently stay in and the cultural bond that they share with their native nation constantly tug at them. Media helps in maintaining the constancy in the diasporic identity. Accessibility of ethnic media is a way of maintaining the traditional links with their homeland as it serves as a symbolic bond connecting their cultures to their places of origin which is partly imagined and partly experienced.
