Pickering (communication and media studies, Loughborough U.) addresses issues and positions which have led to the present impasse between social history and cultural theory, drawing on the concept of "experience" as a way of exploring and reappraising key debates that have come out of feminism, critical hermeneutics, historiography, and cultural and social theory. He offers a fresh reading of the work of writers in the social sciences and humanities including Raymond Williams, Wilhelm Dilthey, and Joan Scott.
