He argues that the reproduction of nationalism often goes unacknowledged and unremarked upon, and questions whether something like a European \"imagination\" can be produced. Stankiewicz describes the challenges that ARTE staff face, including rapidly changing media technologies and audiences, unreflective national stereotyping, and unwieldy bureaucratic infrastructure, which ultimately limit the channel\u0026amp;#x2019;s abilities to cultivate a transnational, \"European\" public. \u003ci\u003eEurope Un-Imagined \u003c\/i\u003echallenges its readers to find new ways of thinking about how people belong in the world beyond the problematic logics of national categorization.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eIntroduction\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 1: \u003ci\u003eBienvenue à ARTE \u003c\/i\u003e\/ \u003ci\u003eWilkommen bei ARTE\u003c\/i\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 2: Producing trans\/national media \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 3: Trans\/national belonging \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 4: Re-presenting history on and at ARTE \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 5: culture, \"culture,\" Culture \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 6: Trans\/national audiences\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eConclusions and Provocations\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"University of Toronto Press","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52588162482456,"sku":"9781442628793","price":25.77,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/europe-un-imagined-nation-and-culture-at-a-french-german-television-channel-paperback-softback-9781442628793","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
