  • Biography/ Background

    Dianne Rodger is an anthropologist whose work focuses on media, popular culture and communication. Her research explores issues including the tensions between globalisation and localisation, processes of distinction and taste-making and the culturally-specific and contested nature of ‘authenticity’. She is particularly interested in the production and consumption of music and the use of new information and communication technologies in a number of domains, including health promotion. Dianne has held a number of research and teaching positions at the University of Adelaide and began a full-time lecturing role in 2015. In 2019 she was promoted to Senior Lecturer. She is a passionate researcher and teacher.
