Andrew,

This may be a bit peripheral, but Arjun Appadurai has looked media and national/local identities in the context of globalization. Try his book:

Appadurai, Arjun. (1996) Modernity at Large: Cultural Dimensions of Globalization, University of Minnesota Press, Minneapolis.

Friends-

I am developing a course on the mediation of national identity through digital communications technology and am wondering if the good folks at/in AOIR can point in the direction of some good scholarly work in this area.  I am aware of the work that David Morley and Kevin Robbins have dome on Eurpean identites in terms of broadcast media as well as the work of Jody Berland on Canada but am drawing blanks otherwise.  references to/about Canada, especially comparing the US and Canada would be most appreciated.
