Resumen: In this sequel to the best-selling Cultural Studies: Theory and Practice, Chris Barker turns his attention to the significance and future of cultural studies through analysis of its central problems and critical debates. Examining both the strengths and weaknesses of the field, Barker investigates the boundaries of cultural studies and its main underlying themes. The book Making Sense of Cultural Studies: Central Problems and Critical Debates demonstrates how cultural studies has handled a range of important questions, namely, the relationships between language and culture, ideology and truth, politics and cultural analysis, commodification and culture, agency and structure, identity and difference, gender and power, globalization and cultural imperialism, Diaspora and hybridity, class and capitalism, consumer culture and lifestyle, texts and contexts, resistance and solidarity. Students searching for an accessible guide to the core of the discipline will find it in this book. A penetrating portrait of the condition of cultural studies today, this book is also the perfect teaching complement to Cultural Studies: Theory and Practice and is a rich resource for seminar work and undergraduate and postgraduate thesis topics.
