      abstract = {Media Events: A Critical Contemporary Approach proposes an  interdisciplinary and multicultural approach of Dayan and  Katz's theory of media events (1992) by applying it to  contemporary situations. The contributing authors come from  a range of countries (UK, USA, Mexico, Germany, Finland,  Italy, Greece, Portugal, Ukraine) and analyse the theory of  media events from different perspectives, incorporating  social media and offering a re-positioning of Dayan and  Katz's theory of media events. By bringing new perspectives  into this field, the proposed volume is an important  contribution as it grounds the intervention and rethinking  of the theory into further empirical research. This volume  has the potential to function as a 'cross-generational'  link between one of the 'early classics' of media and  communication studies on the one hand and the present  generation of researchers on the other. .},
