Synopsis

This lively and stimulating resource book for students of cultural
studies traces the formation of the field in Britain and its subsequent
development internationally. Classic statements of culturalist,
semiological and postmodernist perspectives are contrasted with less
familiar material illustrating the impact of feminism and the politics
of sexuality, ethnicity and race. This second, greatly expanded edition
includes a new section exploring recent important work in international
cultural studies, and provides key readings on the social construction
of the self and the role of public policy in the cultural field.
