Television and streamed series that viewers watch on their TVs,
computers, phones, and tablets are a crucial part of popular culture
They have an influence on viewers and on law. People acquire values,
behaviors, and stereotypes, both positive and negative, from
television shows, which are relevant to people’s acquisition of
beliefs and to the development of law.. In this book, readers will
find the first transnational, empirical look at ethnicity, gender, and
diversity on legally-themed TV shows. Scholars determine the three
most watched legally-themed shows in Brazil, Britain, Canada, Germany,
Greece, Poland, Switzerland and the United States and then examine
gender, age, ability, ethnicity, race, class, sexual orientation and
nationality in those shows and countries. As such, this book provides
an important link between law, TV, and what is going on in real life.
