Tampere Research Coalition of Russian and Chinese Media (TaRC) is a knowledge hub focusing on Chinese and Russian media. TaRC draws on knowledge and experience from different professional fields and pursues a multidisciplinary approach in the areas of media and cultural studies.
TaRC focuses on Russian and Chinese media in the context of global politics as part of the international communication system, and takes into account the countries’ own national perspectives. By bringing together teachers and students, journalists and other experts in the field, TaRC will address questions regarding media systems, new media technologies, the role of language, cultural values and media representations.
