Funded Activity Summary

Border Crossing: The Transnational Career of the Television Crime Drama. This project aims to shed new light on the evolving dynamics of the global television industry in an era of post-broadcast production and distribution with particular attention to the television crime drama. As one of television's most enduring and popular genres, the crime drama has routinely reflected local, regional and national concerns about law and order issues. Through a series of case studies, this project plans to explore how national frames of reference in terms of policy and content are being negotiated in different production contexts within the global market place. The television crime drama may thus provide an illuminating lens through which to examine the impact of globalisation on the rapidly evolving television industry as it enters a new era.
