Subject Description | This subject offers a critical review of 'cultural politics'. We begin by considering some of the major twentieth-century options available for theorising cultural politics. Students will produce specific studies of the political dimensions of cultural practices in order to re-think perceived notions of subjectivity, ideology and representation. Our aim is to appreciate and explore the inter-relationships and dynamics of cultural practices, cultural politics and power. |
Assessment | Written work totalling 5000 words or an agreed equivalent in image/sound text as negotiated with the subject coordinator. |
Prescribed Texts | A subject reader will be available. |
