Abstract: | This article investigates the role of critics in the cultural industries through a multidisciplinary literature review. First, the author dicusses the nature of media criticism and its relationship to the cultural industries. Then he approaches the question of how critical discourse is constructed: how do critics evaluate cultural products, knowing that both the economic fate of the work and the critic's professional legitimacy depend on the evaluation. Finally he considers the multiple roles played by critics. |
