Why Cultural Studies? is a rallying call for a
reinvigoration of the project of cultural studies that provides a
critical analysis of its meteoric rise to the academic fore and
makes a convincing argument for the pressing need for a renewed
investment in, and re-evaluation of, its core ideals.
* Rodman argues that there are valuable lessons we can learn from
cultural studies’ past that have the potential to lead
cultural studies to an invigorated and viable future
* Makes the claim that cultural studies isn’t – and
shouldn’t be – solely an academic subject, but open to
both academics and non-academics alike
* Asserts that now more than ever cultural studies has a
productive role to play in promoting social justice and building a
better world
* Written by one of the leading figures in the area of cultural
studies, and the current Chair of the Association for Cultural
Studies
