A Discourse Analysis of Cine-Politics from a Religious and Ethnic Viewpoint
Open accessAbstract
Cinema has a significant impact on the lives of people in this contemporary world. To interact with people of differed communities, cinematic representation of varied ethnic communities plays a vital role in determining the image that the world perceives of them. This study attempts to look into three aspects: First being the nationalism discourse through films in the cinema of the third world countries. Secondly, it analyses the negative representation of various ethnic minority groups by Hollywood and how it directly influences their perspective. Finally, it inquiries into the ethnic cinema created by these groups to re-establish their image employing a progressive representation of their in-groups. https://doi.org/10.26803/ijhss.12.1.1

Racial and ethnic minorities are dramatically under-represented in the most crucial creative roles in entertainment production.
“The direct result of these stereotypes and the overall scarcity of diversity is the structural inequalities in the creation of products of entertainment, as all the racial and ethnic minorities are dramatically under-represented when it comes to the most crucial creative roles (Varghese, 2020).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
