Pop Goes the Decade: The 2000s comprehensively examines popular
culture in the 2000s, placing the culture of the decade in
historical context and showing how it not only reflected but also
influenced its times. Pop Goes the Decade: The 2000s starts with a
timeline of major historical pop culture events of the 2000s,
followed by an introduction describing what the U.S. was like at
the beginning of the new millennium and how it would change
throughout the decade. Next come chapters broken down by medium:
television, sports, music, movies, literature, technology, media,
and fashion and art. A chapter on controversies in popular culture
is followed by a chapter on game-changers, featuring 20 individuals
who made a major impact on the U.S. in the 2000s. Finally, a
conclusion shows the impact that pop culture in the 2000s has had
on the U.S. in the years since. This volume serves as a
