Contesting Empire, Globalizing Dissent: Cultural Studies after 9/11

Contesting Empire, Globalizing Dissent: Cultural Studies after 9/11 is a landmark book that launches the field of cultural studies into the next millennium. Leading scholars from cultural studies, education, gender studies, and sociology reposition critical cultural studies research around the goals of moral clarity and political intervention. Chapters range in focus from neoliberalism and democracy to America's war on kids and the cultural politics of national identity.
