Capital, Culture, and Socioeconomic Justice
Class, Liberal Pluralism and Counterhegemony
This article focusses two interrelated issues in cultural studies: its increasing institutionalization, and the diminished relevance of class as an organizing principle. It concurs with many who ask what might radicalize cultural studies in the US at a time when the Birmingham legacy - an extra-institutional radicalism linked to Marxism - is no longer an effective guide. It proceeds by discussing the limits of forces which have prevented this rad…

Marxism, Deconstruction, and Ideology
It was perhaps inevitable in the apathetic late 1970s and early 1980s that we would finally witness a series of efforts (nostalgic, allegorical rewritings?) to politicize discourses generated from the atmosphere of experimentation in the 1960s, and which produced a kind of implicit synthesis with those of Marxism. The 1960s, after all, were the times when incongruities were merged, when a plethora of new knowledges were pressed into utilitarian s…
