This graduate-level course explores how collective memory is constructed, circulated, contested, and transformed through media. Drawing on foundational thinkers such as Maurice Halbwachs, Jan Assmann, and Pierre Nora, the course examines the relationship between memory, media institutions, representation, and power in contemporary societies. Students analyze how journalism, film, television, photography, digital platforms, and popular culture function as memory agents that shape national identity, trauma narratives, nostalgia, activism, and counter-memory. Particular attention is given to digital memory, algorithmic curation, transnational memory flows, and the politics of remembrance in mediated environments. Through theoretical readings, case studies, and research-based assignments, students develop advanced analytical skills to critically evaluate media as sites of cultural memory production and negotiation.

Diffusion of Innovation (DOI) Theory, developed by E.M. Rogers in 1962, is one of the oldest social science theories. It originated in communication to explain how, over time, an idea or product gains momentum and diffuses (or spreads) through a specific population or social system. The end result of this diffusion is that people, as part of a social system, adopt a new idea, behavior, or product. Adoption means that a person does something differently than what they had previously (i.e., purchase or use a new product, acquire and perform a new behavior, etc.). The key to adoption is that the person must perceive the idea, behavior, or product as new or innovative. It is through this that diffusion is possible.
