Communication Despite Postmodernism

Overview

The malaise of today's ""Cultural Studies"" is perhaps best summarized by Picasso (paraphrased) ""success can lead to copying from oneself, and copying from oneself, and that is worse than copying from others"". This book is both a response and an independent configuration of the dominant, current trend: that is ""cultural studies"" known as the Birmingham/U.S. School (B/USS). Contemporary Cultural Studies leapfrogs the Birmingham/U.S. School of ""future self-clarification."" The fundamental conceptual, mythological and philosophical problematics have been worked over the last 40-plus years in the United States in advance of the current self-clarificaion exercises. Surprisingly, the genesis of U.S. Contemporary Cultural Studies is in Continental philosophy, not unlike the genesis of the Birmingham/U.S. School. This book discusses some procedural questions and practical features relevant to theory and research practice in social science and humanities from the standpoint of phenomenology.
