Synopsis

Question of Method in Cultural Studies brings together a group of scholars from across the social sciences and humanities to consider one of the most vexing issues confronting the proverbial 'anti-discipline' of cultural studies. * Covers such topics as the media, feminism, and politics * Identifies what methods have prevailed in the interdisciplinary pursuit of cultural studies * Examines the relationship between cultural studies and traditional disciplines, the politics of knowledge, and spatial and temporal models * Probes the possibility of method in explicit terms for scholars and students in media, communications, sociology and allied fields.

Leading scholars in the field scrutinize defining issues in theory and practice with penetrating insight. In seeking to forge a common ground for the field, this offers a major breakthrough.
