| | Katz: "Postmodern Cultural Studies: A Critique" |
 | | According to appreciative cultural studies, the meanings of identities and struggles over them are immanent to those identities themselves. | | | This she attributes to the replacement of one discourse by another: Ernesto Laclau's displacement of the unified class subject by an understanding of "identities" as contingent and inherently plural. | | | that the pleasure of popular culture cannot lie outside hegemonic ideological formations; pleasure must be implicated in the ways in which hegemony is secured and maintained. |

| | John Quiggin » Blog Archive » What I like about cultural studies |
| | We note two aspects of culture: the known meanings and directions and the new meanings and directions which must be tested. | | | I have to add, Katz, that there’s a delicious irony in your defending cultural studies on the basis of a definition which explicitly excludes any role for historical mutability or the interpretive community. | | | So your claim seems to be that Cultural Studies does just fine until it is asked to distinguish real examples of its theories from fake ones by reading them, then it falls apart. |

| | Cultural studies - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | It attempts to expose and reconcile the division of knowledge, to overcome the split between tacit (cultural knowledge) and objective (universal) forms of knowledge. | | | Other views challenge this, particularly by underlining the different ways people read, receive, and interpret cultural texts. | | | Cultural studies concerns itself with the meaning and practices of everyday life. |
