James Procter's introduction places Hall's work within its
historical contexts, providing a clear guide to his key ideas and
influences, as well as to his critics and his intellectual legacy.
Stuart Hall has been pivotal to the development of cultural studies
during the past forty years. Whether as director of the Centre for
Contemporary Cultural Studies, or as one of the leading public
intellectuals of the postwar period, he has helped transform our
understanding of culture as both a theoretical catagory and a
political practice. Topics include: * popular culture and youth
subcultures * the CCCS and cultural studies * media and
communication * racism and resistance * postmodernism and the
postcolonial * Thatcherism * identity, ethnicity, diaspora Stuart
Hall is the ideal gateway to the work of a critic described by
Terry Eagleton as 'a walking chronicle of everything from the New
Left to New Times, Leavis to Lyotard, Aldermaston to ethnicity'
