| dc.description | This is an “interesting” (to be inflected something like the way Star Trek’s Vulcan Spock might say “fascinating”) moment for cultural studies. It is a moment when intellectuals invested in cultural studies are asking each other and themselves lots of questions. (A few years ago, it felt as though the questions we had to address were coming more from critics, antagonists and even enemies writing outside the space of cultural studies.) Some of the questions are urgent and crucial, others have more local and temporary import, and still others may be leading us down dead-ends. Some of the questions involve decisions about where cultural studies can or should be going, what it can or should be doing. This involves, among other things, our attempt to balance the specificity of culture studies with the need for intellectual and political alliances. Some of the questions involve debates about the need for and the appropriate practice of judging work in cultural studies and call for a renewed willingness to find and engage in new forms of criticism and elaboration. And some questions involve setting the agenda for cultural studies, asking what topics have been over-privileged, and what topics have been excluded. And for those that were intentionally excluded as it were at some point, how are they to be taken up in a way that is consistent with cultural studies practice? | - |
