| Description: | Select Guide Rating This classic text is still one of the most influential and compelling books in the social sciences. Staying true to the original writing, this special edition includes a new Preface, an Index and reflective Afterword from Stuart Hall and the authors, exploring the continued relevance of the text in light of contemporary cultural and social issues. This special 35th anniversary edition contains the original, unchanged text that inspired a generation, alongside two new chapters that explore the book''s continued significance for today''s readers. The Preface provides a brief retrospective account of the book''s original structure, the rich ethnographic, intellectual and theoretical work that informed it, and the historical context in which it appeared. In the new Afterword, each of the authors takes up a specific theme from the original book and interrogates it in the light of current crises, perspectives and contexts. |
