Epilogue: A Meditation on Homecomings Appendix: Research DesignReviews“Young People, Media, and Nostalgia offers a fresh and richly detailed account of nostalgia cultures in streaming video. The sharp analytical convergence between cultural studies and memory studies in an era of retro aesthetics, and the grounded exploration of transnational media flows in Central America, make a vital contribution to global media studies”. Adrian Athique, University of Queensland. “A fascinating study of nostalgia and media, Young People, Media, and Nostalgia examines the interplay of Costa Rican youth engagement in nostalgic TV and film from the US. The ethnographic research gives a framework for reception studies, as well as unveiling the transnational dynamics at play which are shaping young audience reactions to nostalgic representations”. Liz Harvey-Kattou, University of Westminster “This wonderful study gives timely new insight into the complex workings of nostalgia in the digital age. Muñoz-González combines an impressive theoretical range with empirical research into the complex motivations that make American media like Stranger Things and Bohemian Rhapsody so appealing to Costa Rican youth culture. Young People, Media, and Nostalgia thereby sheds urgent new light on the political, cultural, and social aspects of transnational media in the digital age”.
