Mao in India

Professor Bella Mody of CU Journalism and Mass Communication will give a luncheon series talk on Mao in India on Thursday, Feb. 20, at noon, CAS Building, 1424 Broadway. Lunch will be served. Given that there is no alternative to news media for voter education in democracies, and the multi-ethnic complexion of the Indian polity, Mody will compare newspaper coverage targeted at distinct linguistic markets. Representations of the ongoing Maoist insurgency will be compared to investigate differences in the comprehensiveness of citizen education.
