Synopsis

"What does culture mean to us today? In New Keywords, three luminaries in the field of cultural studies have assembled a volume showcasing 142 signed entries that capture the practices, institutions, and debates of contemporary society. Almost thirty years ago Raymond Williams's Keywords set the standard for how we understand and use the language of culture and society. New Keywords reflects the transformation in culture and society since 1976 and is a state-of-the-art reference for students, teachers, and culture vultures everywhere."--Jacket.
