“…A few articles investigated the topic of diasporic film culture; these articles, on the one hand, invested in understanding the issues of cultural authenticity and construction of “otherness” in film‐representations (it is worth noting that some of such representations are distinctly different from the Bollywood styles); and, on the other hand, the scholars explored the structural issues and challenges associated with diasporic film productions, including the access to resources and infrastructure, transnational and local networks and resources (including human resources), as well as the legal and informal transnational circulation of film (Mudliar & Pal, 2015; Smets et al., 2013).…”

This article reviews contemporary intercultural scholarship by examining published papers in 16 communication journals (5 of them were dedicated intercultural journals) between 2007 and 2018. The analysis found that the number of manuscripts published in 12 years (n = 191, or approximately 2.5% of 7452 published papers) on South Asian issues and populations is meager. Based on the reading of the intercultural manuscripts, this article identified eight key areas of scholarly attention, including acculturation and cultural adaptation, intercultural transitions, language and verbal communication, communication for social change, negotiation of identities, technology‐based communication, media and mediated communication, and new dynamics in the contemporary era. Later, this article talked about “silent zones” of contemporary intercultural scholarship—topics or areas that are under‐researched and then described potential pathways of future scholarship in imagining a more tolerant, just and equal South Asia.

Özetİletişim araştırmalarında izleyicinin nasıl kavrandığı ve incelendiği konuları merkezî bir önem taşır. Bu yazı nitel izleyici araştırmalarına odaklanmaktadır. Öncelikle Kültürel Çalışmalar ekolünün öncü izleyici araştırmaları konu edilmekte, ardından izleyici araştırmalarına yönelik eleştiriler ele alınarak bu çalışmaların barındırdığı politik imkân meselesi tartışılmaktadır. Yazının temel iddiası, izleyici araştırmaları ve alımlama çalışmalarının yerel dinamikleri anlamak, mikro ve makro düzeyler arasında bağ kurmak açısından vazgeçilmez olduğudur. Bu tür araştırmalardan elde edilecek bilgi üzerine kurulmuş uzun erimli politik stratejiler sayesinde muhalif anlamları güçlendirmek ve yaygınlaştırmak da mümkündür. Anahtar Terimlerİzleyici, izleyici araştırmaları, alımlama, politik imkân, kültürel çalışmalar AUDIENCE RESEARCH AND THE PROBLEM OF POLITICAL POTENTIALITY AbstractIn communication studies how the audience is conceived and analysed has significant weight. This study focuses on qualitative audience studies. First, I focus on the pioneering research within the scope of Cultural Studies and second I offer a critical analysis of the criticisms against the audience research. In the same part I also focus on the political possibilities that the audience research contains. The main argument of the study is that audience and reception studies are indispensable to understand the local dynamics and to grasp the connections between micro and macro levels. In this respect, this strand of research also offers the grounds to develop political strategies, which enables one to reinforce and spread oppositional meanings.
