Aesthetics of peripherality: negotiating Europe through television crime fiction. The conference focuses on some of the geopolitical implications of the Nordic, Eastern and British areas in this context. The Conference aims to first provide a reflective example (for example the Wataha case provides food for thought) and then provide an introduction to the practical-aesthetic approach to TV. Subsequently, the Lecture bases its analysis on regional geopolitics (Arctic areas, Eastern Europe, Great Britain) and shows how these are represented in contemporary cases, perhaps Trom, Pustina and Stay Close. This analysis offers a new perspective on the creation of a possible European identity through TV Crime Fiction.
