Now, more than 20 years since its initial release, John Fiske's
classic text Power Plays Power Works remains both timely and
insightful as a theoretically driven examination of the terrain
where the politics of culture and the culture of politics collide.
Drawing on a diverse set of cultural sites - from alternative talk
radio forums, museums, celebrity fandom, to social problems such as
homelessness - Fiske traverses the topography of the American
cultural landscape to highlight the ways that ordinary people
creatively construct their social identities and relationships
through the use of the resources available to them, while
constrained by social conditions not of their own choosing. This
important analysis provides a set of critical methodological and
analytical tools to grapple with the complexities and struggles of
contemporary social life. A new introductory essay by former Fiske
student Black Hawk Hancock entitled 'Learning How to Fiske:
Theorizing Power, Knowledge, and Bodies in the 21st Century'
elucidates Fiske's methods for today's students, providing them
with the ultimate guide to thinking and analyzing like John Fiske;
the art of 'Learning How to Fiske'.
