Osnova

Imagine a sociology course where you already “know” much of the empirical material that we will examine during the semester. Television, film, music, art and other forms of non-elite culture provide the data for this intensive investigation of the role of mass culture in contemporary life. Sociological theory provides the lens through which we look at the ways in which mass or popular culture interacts and intersects with society. Moving from capitalism to consumerism and from the Frankfurt School to Fiske on TV theory, we will think about the different effects of the “popular” on our own lives as well as on society as a whole. We’ll consider the many ways in which mass or popular culture has been defined and understood historically and consider how these might affect a globalized future. Topics include gender, race, and ethnicity, class and commodification, subcultures, identities, and the processes of resistance and domination.Literature:Betts, Raymond F. 2004.
