[ecrea] Journal of European Popular Culture new issue and EUPOP2012 conference

Intellect is delighted to announce the publication of issue 2.1 of 
/Journal of European Popular Culture/ (JEPC).

Journal of European Popular Culture 2.1

In this issue, which explores the question "what is it that makes the 
popular popular?", filmmaker Allyson Fiddler explores film's ability to 
serve as a focal point for resistance within a context of political 
turmoil, while Stephen Harper explores ways in which film can reflect 
popular bias, for example, in the pervasive western humanitarian 
interventionist narrative. Approaches to national identity are discussed 
in an exploration of fusions between German and African-American music, 
while through an examination of Nuri Bilge Ceylan's films, the 
implications of the economic position of Turkish cinema within Europe is 
discussed.

*The European Popular Culture Association
*
The /Journal of European Popular Culture/ is connected to the European 
Popular Culture Association (EPCA) who are hosting their inaugural 
conference (EUPOP2012) between the 11-13th July at the London College of 
Fashion, University of the Arts, London. The EPCA promotes the study of 
popular culture from, in, and about Europe. Popular culture involves a 
wide range of activities, outcomes and audiences; EPCA aims to examine 
and discuss these different activities as they relate both to Europe, 
and to Europeans across the globe, whether contemporary or historical.
