Deconstructing Popular Culture

How can the study of pop music, TV and film give insight into issues of culture? This book shows how deconstruction theory allows us to read and interpret the popular culture that surrounds us. Applying complex theory to recognizable examples, Paul Bowman turns deconstruction into an indispensable tool for all students of Cultural Studies.

PAUL BOWMAN is Senior Lecturer in Cultural Studies at Roehampton University, UK. His previous books include Interrogating Cultural Studies (2003) and Post-Marxism versus Cultural Studies (2007).
