- Summary:
- This book offers a cultural studies analysis of politics in the broadest understanding of the term, dealing with the ideas of more than 50 thinkers, from Aristotle to Pierre Bourdieu. It argues that power manifests itself in all human relationships and is not confined to governmental matters. It considers topics such as ideas people have about raising children, "imprinting" children with culture-specific beliefs, and the importance of place, belief systems, codes of behavior, cultural imperatives, certain historical figures, and historical periods, among others.
