Are the humanities still relevant in the twenty-first century? In
the context of pervasive economic liberalism and shrinking budgets,
the importance of humanities research for society is increasingly
put into question. This volume claims that the humanities do indeed
matter by offering empirically grounded critical reflections on
contemporary cultural practices, thereby opening up new ways of
understanding social life and new directions in humanities
scholarship. The contributors argue that the humanities can regain
their relevance for society, pose new questions and provide fresh
answers, while maintaining their core values: critical reflection,
historical consciousness and analytical distance.
