Are Racial and Ethnic Minority Voters Abandoning the Democrats
For decades, the Democratic Party has commanded the overwhelming support of racial and ethnic minority voters in the United States. While a majority of Black, Latino, and Asian American voters continue to vote for the Democrats, recent elections and polls have suggested that Republicans are making inroads. The 2024 Democratic electorate was whiter than it had been in 2012, even though the US has become more racially diverse in that same period. T…

Dobbs v. Jackson and the Revival of the States' Rights Constitution
The US Supreme Court's decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health ended the federal right to an abortion, first pronounced in the 1973 case Roe v. Wade . Dobbs has immediate implications for American women, but it also exposes a growing hostility by the court to the doctrine of ‘substantive due process’ on which many other federal rights rely. This article argues that the court's weakening of substantive due process is a direct challenge to the …
Content analysis of biological sex-specific media coverage of sport
Studies have found that media coverage of women's sports is inadequate when compared with coverage of men's sports with regards to the amount of coverage as well as the type of coverage across men's and women’s sports. With few exceptions, past research has found inequitable coverage of female and male athletes in every media form studied, from print and television to the internet. Some exceptions to the findings include not-for-profit media, suc…
Method in Our Madness? Identity and Power in a Memory Work Method
This chapter recovers and reflects upon a method of inquiry called &s;Memory Work&s;. It was adopted by a group of seven postgraduate students and one teacher, based in the then Centre for Contemporary Cultural Studies at Birmingham University. Memory work was not adopted for narrowly disciplinary or academic reasons. For Richard the development of cultural studies politically as well as intellectually was a major motive, but so too was the negot…

Evaluating Evidence for Historical Anadromous Salmon Runs in Eklutna Lake, Alaska
We assessed historical presence of sockeye salmon in Eklutna Lake, Alaska, prior to construction of a diversion dam on the downstream Eklutna River in 1929, using nitrogen stable isotopes measured in a lacustrine core 93 cm long. Sediments in the core were dated using varve counts, verified by 210Pb and 137Cs measurements. The basal date of the core was AD 1859, and varves became slightly thinner and less distinct after 1929. Sediments were prima…
Hamilton's Deracialization
Many commentators have described Barack Obama as a 'deracialized' politician. In contrast to 'racialized' Black candidates, deracialized politicians are said to deemphasize their Black racial identity, downplay the racial legacies of American inequality, and favor race-neutral over racially targeted policies. Puzzlingly, this narrative of Obama's racial politics sits incongruously with his politicalcurriculum vitae, spent largely in contexts whic…
Overrepresenting Ukip, Underrepresenting the Greens and Lib Dems
Revisiting a study conducted by McLean and Johnston in 2009, this article analyses the results of the 2014 European elections in Great Britain. Britain uses a regional list system to select its members of the European Parliament. The d'Hondt method, which is used to allocate votes to seats within each of the 11 regional constituencies in Britain, is shown to have allocated three more MEPs to the UK Independence Party (UKIP) than they would have r…

Social democracy, education and the crisis
This stencilled paper is a revised version of an article which first appeared in Working Papers in Cultural Studies No. 10, On Ideology, 1977. Written in late 1976 the article was centrally concerned with explaining the genesis and constituents of what was then publicly conceived of, and defined, as a ‘crisis’ in education. We attempted to explain the political and ideological nature of that ‘crisis’, against explanations which, on the one hand s…
Post-hegemony
This article responds to Lash and Thoburn's articles in this volume by arguing for the value of Gramsci's strategic concept of hegemony today. It places post-hegemony theories as replicating one particular reading of Gramsci as a theorist of ideology and politics only, a reading that was deepened by certain appropriations of post-structuralist theory in the 1980s. It argues that the Prison Notebooks contain a richer legacy of concepts and histori…

Card Sorting as a Technique for Survey Interviewing
This article reports on two years' experience with card sorting, a novel method of gathering survey data in large-scale research. Reliability, validity and response bias are assessed, and reactions of respondents and interviewers are reported. The authors conclude that card sorting is a fast and interesting method of obtaining valid and reliable interview data, and one which appears to be capable as well of counteracting at least some of the bias…

Introducing this edition, E.M. Waith provides a fresh view of the play in its historical context as well as an original discussion of the famous 'Peacham' drawing - the only surviving contemporary Shakespeare illustration. An illustrated account of performances leads to an assessment of the play's qualities in the light of its critical reception. The eighteenth-century version of the play's probable source is given in one of the appendices.
