The ‘War on Terror’: Post-9/11 Television Drama, Docudrama and Documentary (Contemporary Landmark Television) - Hardcover
The events of September 11th changed the world irreversibly, in ways that have reverberated throughout our cultural and media landscape. The War on Terror traces these reverberations through the medium of television, offering analyses of key programs and series that engage with, or are haunted by, the aftermath of September 11 and the “war on terror” that has followed. Individual chapters examine dramas representing the invasion of Iraq, such as Occupation and Generation Kill; war comedies, such as Gary, Tank Commander; documentaries such as the BBC Panorama’s coverage of the September 11th attacks; and September 11th in popular series such as CSI: New York. The book concludes with an extended reflection on contemporary docudrama and an interview with docudrama filmmaker Peter Kosminsky.

Review:
“The ‘War on Terror’ is an often-used but little-analyzed term, and in this collection leading international specialists unpack what is at stake in television that engages with it in factual, fictional, and docudramatic forms. This book is essential reading on how the small screen represents and shapes the times we live in.” (Jonathan Bignell, University of Reading)
