"The book engages important and intriguing questions about culture
and politics and makes a contribution to contemporary history. The
essays fit together well, with a nice trajectory that includes a
chronological element. The topics engaged are generally "fresh" and
new, but I was also impressed by the rich historiography..." .
Jonathan Petropoulos, Claremont McKenna College
"This volume presents many new insights into a subject that has
not yet been analysed systematically enough. It therefore
represents an important contribution to the history of subcultures
and will no doubt have a considerable influence on the scholarly
debate on this topic." . Detlef Siegfried, University of
Copenhagen
The wave of anti-authoritarian political activity associated
with the term "1968" can by no means be confined under the rubric
of "protest," understood narrowly in terms of street marches and
other reactions to state initiatives. Indeed, the actions generated
in response to "1968" frequently involved attempts to elaborate
resistance within the realm of culture generally, and in the arts
in particular. This blurring of the boundary between art and
politics was a characteristic development of the political activism
of the postwar period. This volume brings together a group of
essays concerned with the multifaceted link between culture and
politics, highlighting lesser-known case studies and opening new
perspectives on the development of anti-authoritarian politics in
Europe from the 1950s to the fall of Communism and beyond."
For decades, scholars have repeatedly found the inequity of gender
representations in informational and entertainment media. Beginning
with the seminal work by Gaye Tuchman and colleagues, we have
repeatedly seen a systemic underrepresentation and
misrepresentation of women in media. Examining the latest research
in discourse and content analyses trending in both domestic and
international circles, Media Disparity: A Gender Battleground
highlights the progress-or lack thereof-in media regarding
portrayals of women, across genres and cultures within the
twenty-first century. Blending both original studies and
descriptive overviews of current media platforms, top scholars
evaluate the portrayals of women in contemporary venues, including
advertisements, videogames, political stories, health
communication, and reality television.
