Russian TV Series in the Era of Transition examines contemporary
Russian television genres in the age of transition from broadcast to
post-broadcast television. Focusing on critical debates and the most
significant TV series of the past two decades, the volume's
contributors--the leading US and European scholars studying Russian
television, as well as the leading Russian TV producers and
directors--focus on three major issues: Russian television's transition
to digital post-broadcast economy, which redefined the media
environment; Russian television's integration into global television
markets and their genre systems; and major changes in the representation
of gender and sexuality on Russian television.
