- Summary:
- This glossary provides the researcher and student with lucid and up-to-date guidance through the vibrant and changing debates in cultural studies and related disciplines. In a field where meanings are frequently complex and ambiguous, it has been praised for its clarity and helpfulness. This new edition has been updated throughout. Among the new terms are entries for Ecology, Everyday Life, The Event, Nomadism, Psychogeography, and Taste, along with terms at the cutting edge of new thinking in social and cultural theory such as Convergence, Cosmopolitanism, Cultural Intermediaries, the Posthuman, and Thirdspace. It is an ideal resource for everyone wishing to keep up-to-date with the changing agenda in cultural studies.
