Ethical questions feature prominently on today's cultural and
political agendas. The Ethics of Cultural Studies presents an
ethical manifesto for Cultural Studies, an exploration of its
current ethical and political concerns, and of its future
challenges. The book focuses on a number of key issues: National,
racial and sexual identity; Representation; Violence and the media;
The relationship between body and technology; The science-culture
'wars'; The text engages with the writings of the important
theorists of ethics and culture: Giorgio Agamben; Judith Butler;
Jacques Derrida; Stuart Hall; Donna Haraway; N. Katherine Hayles;
Ernesto Laclau; Emmanuel Levinas; Jean-Francois Lyotard; Samuel
Weber; The book is concerned with ethics in the material world, and
draws on examples as diverse as cloning and genetics, asylum and
immigration, experiments in plastic surgery and in electronic and
digital art, memories of the Holocaust, September 11th and media
representations of violence and crime. The Ethics of Cultural
Studies is a groundbreaking intervention that sets the debate on
ethics in cultural study, and offers an invaluable source of ideas
for students of contemporary culture.
