Religion is living culture. It continues to play a role in shaping
political ideologies, institutional practices, communities of
interest, ways of life and social identities. Mediating Faiths
brings together scholars working across a range of fields,
including cultural studies, media, sociology, anthropology,
cultural theory and religious studies, in order to facilitate
greater understanding of recent transformations. Contributors
illustrate how religion continues to be responsive to the very
latest social and cultural developments in the environments in
which it exists. They raise fundamental questions concerning new
media and religious expression, religious youth cultures, the links
between spirituality, personal development and consumer culture,
and contemporary intersections of religion, identity and politics.
Together the chapters demonstrate how belief in the superempirical
is negotiated relative to secular concerns in the twenty-first
century.
With funding cuts well underway and many institutions already
promising to charge the maximum 9,000 (approx. $15,000 USD) yearly
tuition fee in Britain, university education for the majority is
under threat. This book exposes the true motives behind the
government's program and provides the analytical tools to fight it.
Widespread student protests and occupations, often supported by
staff, unions, and society at large, show the public's opposition
to funding cuts and fee increases. The contributors to this sharp,
well-written collection, many of whom are active participants in
the anti-cuts movement, outline what's at stake and why it matters.
They argue that university education is becoming increasingly
skewed towards vocational degrees, which devalues the arts and
social sciences subjects that allow creativity and political
inquiry to flourish. Released near the beginning of the new
academic year, this book will be at the heart of debates around the
future of higher education in the UK and beyond, inspiring both new
and seasoned activists in the fight for the soul of our
universities.

Hoggart's contribution and influence, set his work in context, and
determine its current relevance * Addresses detractors and their
positions of Hoggart, delineating long-term ideological battles
within academia * Brings cultural studies, literary criticism, and
social history to bear on this figure whose interests spread across
disciplines, to create a text which blends many threads into a
coherent whole
