Description
Bloomsbury Cultural Politics v. 1 Issue 2 2005 Edition by John Armitage, Douglas Kellner, Ryan Bishop
"Cultural Politics" is an international, refereed journal that explores the global character and effects of contemporary culture and politics. It explores precisely what is cultural about politics and what is political about culture. Publishing across the Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences, the journal welcomes articles from different political positions, cultural approaches and geographical locations. "Cultural Politics" publishes work that analyses how cultural identities, agencies and actors, political issues and conflicts, and global media are linked, characterized, examined and resolved. In so doing, the journal supports the innovative study of established, embryonic, marginalised or unexplored regions of cultural politics. "Cultural Politics", while embodying the interdisciplinary coverage and discursive critical spirit of contemporary cultural studies, emphasizes how cultural theories and practices intersect with and elucidate analyses of political power.
