Description
Paradoxically, in spite of its origins in and the early allegiances to Adult Education, Cultural Studies as a field of scholarship has not paid significant attention to questions of pedagogy. In contrast, A Question of Discipline: Pedagogy, Power, and the Teaching of Cultural Studies draws together reflexive practitioners of Cultural Studies from the UK, United States, Australia, and Spain to consider their practices as teachers in higher education. In a lively and accessible collection, the various authors raise questions about the nature of knowledge, the relationship between theory and practice, and the simultaneously political and intellectual project that constitutes Cultural Studies in its specific geopolitical and historical locations. This book will be essential reading for all involved in teaching, researching, and studying Cultural Studies and will also be an invaluable resource for those interested in questions of pedagogy in higher education more generally.
