Introduces key terms, research traditions, debates, and histories
for American Studies and Cultural Studies in an updated edition
Since its initial publication, scholars and students alike have
turned to Keywords for American Cultural Studies as an invaluable
resource for understanding key terms and debates in the fields of
American studies and cultural studies. As scholarship has continued
to evolve, this revised and expanded third edition offers
indispensable meditations on new and developing concepts used in
American studies, cultural studies, and beyond. Designed as a
uniquely print-digital hybrid publication, this Keywords volume
collects 114 essays, each focused on a single term such as
“America,” “culture,” “diversity,” or “religion.”
More than forty of the essays have been significantly revised for
this new edition, and there are nineteen completely new keywords,
including crucial additions such as “biopolitics,” “data,”
“debt,” and “intersectionality.” Throughout the volume,
interdisciplinary scholars explore these terms and others as nodal
points in many of today’s most dynamic and vexed discussions of
political and social life, both inside and outside of the academy.
The Keywords website features forty-eight essays not in the print
volume; it also provides pedagogical tools for instructors using
print and online keywords in their courses. The publication brings
together essays by interdisciplinary scholars working in literary
studies and political economy, cultural anthropology and ethnic
studies, African American history and performance studies, gender
studies and political theory. Some entries are explicitly
argumentative; others are more descriptive. All are clear,
challenging, and critically engaged. As a whole, Keywords for
American Cultural Studies provides an accessible A-to-Z survey of
prevailing academic buzzwords and a flexible tool for carving out
new areas of inquiry.
