Culture in-colour
Culture in-colour is a concept that recognizes that culture is always imbricated in relations of colour as form, structure, or system and in relations of colours. These two regimes – colour and colours – fold back onto and interpenetrate one another to constitute culture in complex, multiple, contradictory, constitutive relations that are potentially open to change. Theorizing culture in-colour draws on and beyond the image of the cyborg to insis…
Articulation Theory
This entry explores the development of articulation theory as an approach to understanding the ways in which elements in a social formation are linked and affect relations of domination and resistance. It examines the contributions of key figures, considers key concepts, and explores challenges for theorizing in the future.
Technology
This entry explores the conception of technology as having four elements: a particular kind of knowledge, a process of transformation, a particular kind of embodied knowledge, and a particular kind of object. Over time, shifts in the meanings of these individual elements have contributed both to better ways of understanding technology “in context” and to inconsistent and confused, but powerful ways of using the term in contemporary culture.
Cultural Studies in Black and White
Political intervention is deeply etched in the history and theory of Cultural Studies. The vehicle of intervention is typically understood as textual and the measure of success as ‘has it changed the world?’ This graphic and textual essay argues for and enacts thinking of and practising intervention more innovatively and more modestly: as equally extra-textual, and as a site for experimentation in the folds among theory, practice, and the quotidi…

Resisting Ecocultural Studies
Ecoculturalism ought to have transformed cultural studies over a decade ago. Yet it has not. I examine the troubled articulation of cultural studies and the 'eco,' focusing on what I perceive to be cultural studies' resistance to, and difficulties with, ecoculturalism. In the end, I seek to make good on the transformative potential of the 'eco' by advocating a seemingly counterintuitive move: that ecoculturalism be jettisoned in favor of a revita…

Intellectual and political hygiene: The “Sokal Affair”
Physicist Alan Sokal perpetrated a “hoax” on the journal, Social Text, by submitting a fraudulent article and criticizing the journal for publishing it. Sokal's hoax is said to demonstrate the corruption of the humanities. Cultural studies, multiculturalism, science studies, feminism, and “new social movements” have all come under attack. Analysis of coverage of this affair reveals evidence of a dis‐ease with contemporary theory in the humanities…
