“…Benedict Anderson (1991) highlights the importance of mediated communication for national identity: an ''imaginary'' community means that national identities must be constructed and reproduced through discursive practices instead of actual experiences. It has been claimed that television in particular has become essential in creating post-modern social unity ( van Zoonen, 2002). Besides the emphasis of difference with others (nations), the construction of national identity or consensus involves the evasion of internal anxiety and controversy (Morley and Robins, 1995).…”

This article enters the debate on media events by analysing Dutch television news reporting of the death of controversial right-wing politician Pim Fortuyn. It aims to demonstrate how the coverage of the murder, in particular the representation of emotions, was implicated in the construction of a national, multicultural consensus. A nationwide bereaved community was created by focusing on expressions of mourning, and converting emotions like anger and hate into a unifying and less destructive depiction of grief.

This study explores Asian Dutch young people's ethnic-cultural identification in relation to their media consumption, and specifically their consumption of popular media from Asian countries other than their country of origin. A survey was conducted among 486 Asian Dutch (18-35 years old). In concurrence with previous research on ethnic minorities it is found that young Asian Dutch identify with multiple ethnic-cultural 'groups'. Besides hostland (Dutch) and homeland (e.g. Chinese) ethnic-cultural identification they also engender novel pan-ethnic Asian ethnic-cultural identification. Furthermore, it is found that young Asian Dutch articulate their Asian ethnic-cultural identification through the consumption of popular media from Asian countries other than their homelands. This study contributes to a more complete understanding of ethnic-cultural identification and popular media options that young ethnic minorities have by breaking away from the traditional hostland/homeland dichotomy.

Dutch research communities were introduced to anglophone Media and Cultural Studies via internationally renowned, pioneering studies in television theory and research on television series. Het Geval Dallas [Watching Dallas] (1982) by cultural scholar Ien Ang was notably ground-breaking because of its use of an active audiences research approach which sought out participant viewers by placing an advertisement in the Dutch women's magazine Viva. Ang analysed viewers' experiences of watching the U.S. TV serial Dallas (1978Dallas ( -1991 and offered key understandings of how television operated as a popular culture medium, and of its social, political and cultural roles. Ang's work was a foundational text in the move towards understanding television in a particular way that is still influencing Television Studies today.This review article offers a provisional mapping of Television Studies as conducted in the Netherlands with a main focus on the Dutch media industry, on the 'reinvention' of the medium in practice -across media, cultures and industries -and on how this has been reflected in Television Studies research conducted in the Netherlands. It brings together what I have observed as three strands of doing media research in the Netherlands over the last decade. It will look, first, at how television is seen to operate as a platform for cultural identity, ranging from historical perspectives on what is called the 'pillarisation' of Dutch public service broadcasting (PSB) to comparative and cross-cultural research on media, diversity and representation. It will secondly turn to the question of how television and streaming media are discussed in contemporary Television Studies in terms of cross-media culture and storytelling. Third, and finally, it will discuss how television is situated as audio-visual heritage, focusing on (digital) preservation practices
