Transnational Perspectives on Culture, Policy, and Education

Redirecting Cultural Studies in Neoliberal Times

by Cameron McCarthy (Volume editor) Cathryn Teasley (Volume editor)
©2008 Textbook VIII, 362 Pages

Summary

As multinational elites vie for economic and cultural dominance, neoliberal socio-economic policies are, in effect, not only reconfiguring political economies, but the ways in which culture is being produced and represented. In light of the global impact of these forms of domination, this collection of informed international scholarship examines world-hegemonic engagements with culture in all spheres of contemporary cosmopolitan life: the personal, the public, the popular, and the institutional.
