Though the emergence of media archaeology has provided a necessary challenge to the dominant strains of film theory, the contributors to this special issue argue that there are important blind spots. They point out how the focus in media archaeology on historical narratives-especially on models of temporality-has led to a blind spot with regard to non-Western media. Drawing on resources in film studies for thinking about the trans- or international movement of media, the authors set out the need for and terms of a globalizing media archaeology.
