EXAMINER’S REPORT
ARGUMENT
What argument could you make about the relationship between media
representations and youth collective identity?
Gauntlett - popular media has a significant but not entirely
straightforward relationship with people’s sense of identity. Identities
are complex constructions. - Media plays some role in shaping our
understanding.
Youth collective identity constructed by Media?
Media representations represent ‘youth as trouble’ – challenging
hegemony.
Some theorists argue these representations actually reinforce
hegemony.
Media representations construct youth collective identity – how do
young people relate to those representations?
STRUCTURE
Introduction – outline focus and state argument.
Historical representations – one paragraph on 1950s JD movies –
juvenile delinquency – offers pleasures of rebellion – sympathetic –
reinforces hegemony.
Contemporary media – newspapers
Contemporary film – Hoodie cinema – Harry Brown – contrast
with Attack the Block
Contemporary TV – Misfits
Conclusion – sum up argument – what is the significance of
media representations of young people? – how does this relate
to collective identity? How do you think media representations
of young people will change or stay the same over time.
