Lilie Chouliaraki

Lilie Chouliaraki is a professor in Media and Communications at the London School of Economics and Political Sciences (LSE). Chouliaraki’s main area of research is the mediation of human vulnerability and suffering. She empirically explores how the media affects our moral and political relationships with distant others in the sense that it affects how we see the vulnerability of other people and how we are asked to feel, think and act toward them.

Her approach is interdisciplinary and draws on Social and Cultural Theory, Moral Philosophy and Sociology, Visual Communication and Social Semiotics, as well as Discourse Theory and Analysis. Provided by Wikipedia
