Bringing together work on the public sphere, radical cultural studies pedagogy, and public intellectuals, leading scholars of literary and cultural studies, queer studies, ethnic studies, and working-class literature examine the challenges that confront progressive pedagogy, as well as the histories that lie behind the achievements of cultural studies. Class Issues offers a plan for the construction of an alternative public sphere in the rapidly changing space of the academic classroom.

Editorials

From the Publisher

"Class Issues reminds us that university intellectuals work in knowledge factories; that the factories produce engines of dominance; and that , therefore, sabotage has to be the order of the day. The essays state their cases with elegance, with thoroughness, and with economical precision. No one interested in addressing his or her mite of effort to transforming the world can afford to ingore this book."

-Wahneema Lubiano,Duke University
