| Description: |
Demonstrates the power of moving beyond cultural politics to a deeper class critique of contemporary life. Making a case for class as the material logic of culture and surpassing the orthodoxies of cultural studies, this book also attempts to make connections among the seemingly unrelated cultural events and practices. |
| Synopsis: |
"A gem of a book. Its topics are timely and provocative for cultural studies, sociology,English, literary theory, and education classes. The authors are brilliant thinkersand clear, penetrating writers." -Peter McLaren,UCLA, author of Capitalists and Conquerors: A Critical Pedagogy Against EmpireClass in Culture demonstrates the power of moving beyond cultural politics to a deeper class critique of contemporary life. Making a persuasive case for class as the material logic of culture, the book is written in a double register of short critiques of life practices-from food and education to race, stem-cell research, and abortion-as well as sustained critiques of such theoretical discourses as ideology, consumption, globalization, and 9/11. Surpassing the orthodoxies of cultural studies, Class in Culture makes surprising connections among seemingly unrelated cultural events and practices and offers a groundbreaking and complex understanding of the contemporary world. |
