  • Indian Media and Its Transformed Public
    Indian media and its transformed public Maitrayee Chaudhuri Indian media has witnessed an unprecedented growth over the last two decades. This expansion does not necessarily lead to greater democratic participation for the very idea of the ‘public’ has undergone a transformation, evident in: the ideological content of the media, the extra-national membership of the public sphere and the interactive form of publicness. The article argues that the media plays a crucial ideologicalUSE role in recast- ing public discourse in India, a role which is rendered more effective because of a strong synergy between its substance and style. An often strident appropriation of the nation and the Indian ‘public’ by a middle class ideologically aligned with the project of liberalisa- tion is most evident in the media today. This is done in two ways: by an overt ideological defence of an unbridled market and an attack on the very idea of an interventionist and welfare state; and by the everyday quotidian features and news that inscribe corporate speech, create a new imaginary of a global Indian and a global Indian middle class. This contention may be sustained from a scrutiny of the media even when the period is a random month (24 May–23 June) of a random year (2007), as is the case here. COMMERCIAL Keywords: Transnational, media, public sphere, ideology, middle class, corporate culture, globalisation, India FOR After decades of sedate existence, the Indian media universe has witnessed a ‘big bang’ of sudden and gigantic expansion. The most specta- cular changesNOT are in television, where 24×7 news channels, reality pro- grammes, chat shows, sting operations, celebrity weddings and birthdays, beauty pageants, award functions, sports events, natural disasters, political crises, music channels, tarot readings, stand-up comics and competing Maitrayee Chaudhuri is at Centre for the Study of Social Systems, School of Social Sciences, Jawaharlal Nehru University, New Delhi.

  • Writing Australian Cookbooks for Younger Readers
    Brien & Wessell From ‘training in citizenship and home-making’ to ‘plating up’ Central Queensland University Donna Lee Brien Southern Cross University Adele Wessell From “training in citizenship and home-making” to “plating up”: Writing Australian cookbooks for younger readers Abstract: In term of popular literature about young people, cookbooks purporting to address children’s obesity and other diet related issues currently take a prominent place. Beside these, there is a growing related sub-genre of cookbooks for young people that are intended as guides use in practical food preparation. These include television tie-ins such as the globalised Junior MasterChef series as well as books by chefs, nutritionalists, activists, celebrities and parents, most of which have an almost rigidly proscriptive take on what, how and why children eat, and what and how they should eat. Working from Australian cookery instruction books for girls such as those by Flora Pell (1916 and later), through Margaret Gossett’s landmark Children’s Picture Cookbook (1947), to today’s plethora of children-targeted volumes, this paper addresses this Australian publishing phenomenon. It examines these books from the point of view of writers-as-producers as well as the intended consumers for these volumes, the various messages they convey, and what they reflect about food, society and writing for children in Australian popular culture. Biographical Note Dr Adele Wessell is a Senior Lecturer in History at Southern Cross University and Associate Fellow at the National Museum Australia. Her research focuses on food history. Recent publications include a special issue of TEXT journal co-edited with Donna Lee Brien on the Cultural Dynamics of Contemporary Food Choices.
