The Political Economy of Culture
The mass media sell audiences which perform three key functions for the survival of the system: audiences market goods to themselves, they learn to vote for candidates in the political sphere, and they reaffirm belief in the legitimacy of the politico-economic system. The move to urban industrialization weakens considerably the traditional cultural influence of the extended family, the community and religion in the everyday lives of people. The “…

Enlightened Racism: The Cosby Show, Audiences, and the Myth of the American Dream
The Cosby Show needs little introduction to most people familiar with American popular culture. It is a show with immense and universal appeal. Even so, most debates about the significance of the program have failed to take into account one of the more important elements of its success—its viewers. Through a major study of the audiences of The Cosby Show, the authors treat two issues of great social and political importance—how television, Americ…
Stuart Hall's pessimism of the intellect, optimism of the will: Reflections on an intellectual life
Stuart Hall was a seminal figure in the development of cultural studies and his death in 2014 has left an intellectual and political void. This article, based on a memorial talk, offers a number of perspectives on Hall’s life and work: the relationship between his speeches/interviews and his written work; the cultural and political context of cultural studies’ emergence; the contradictory and productive relationship between cultural studies and M…

The Politics of Cultural Studies: Racism, Hegemony, and Resistance
IN RESPONSE TO HERMAN GRAY'S RECENT REVIEW OF OUR BOOK, ENLIGHTened Racism: The Cosby Show, Audiences, and the Myth of the American Dream, we would like to make a general comment regarding the purpose of the book and the current debate on audience research in cultural studies. In general, we found Gray's comments thoughtful and fair-minded (apart from a few minor quibbles, which we have no intention of boring you with). He does, however, raise an…

THE RECENT CELEBRATIONS OF CHEERS NOTWITHSTANDING, COMMERcial network television in the 1980s, especially the late eighties, might be appropriately characterized as the decade. Appearing during the reign of a political regime hostile to the aspirations and advancement of African Americans, Cosby Show made a significant mark in the landscape of American commercial network television. One measure of the show's cultural and social significance is th…

True Confessions: Subliminal Strategies in Teaching Advertising and Surplus Value to the New Conservatives
If the function of theory is to truly inform practice then for teachers of critical studies, the most important concept to consider in devising a pedagogical strategy must be that of 'hegemony'. Before students enter universities they have already had a lifelong course, taught by the school system, the legal system and the media system (to name only a few), in the legitimation of the social order and modern society. In general terms, contemporary…
