The Handbook of Cultural Sociology provides a comprehensive
overview of contemporary scholarship in sociology and related
disciplines focused on the complex relations of culture to social
structures and everyday life. With sixty-five essays written by
scholars from around the world, the book draws diverse approaches
to cultural sociology into a dialogue that charts new pathways for
research on culture in a global era.
Contributing scholars address vital concerns that relate to
classic questions as well as emergent issues in the study of
culture. Topics include cultural and social theory, politics and
the state, social stratification, community, aesthetics, lifestyle,
and identity. In addition, the authors explore developments central
to the constitution and reproduction of culture, such as power,
technology, and the organization of work.
This book is essential reading for undergraduate and
postgraduate students interested in diverse subfields within
Sociology, as well as Cultural Studies, Media and Communication,
and Postcolonial Theory.
