Abstract: | Transnational Perspectives on Culture, Policy, and Education is a productive collection of essays seeking to broaden the perspectives of cultural studies. Writing from ‘the intersections between popular culture, race, public policy, and the neoliberal times in which we live,’ these authors broadly engage a neo-Gramscian awareness of hegemony and Foucauldian assumptions about governmentality to insist upon the specificity of diverse lived experiences of increasingly skewed global power relations. Bidding adieu to post-Fordist sentimentality, they extol the necessity for global citizenship and universal justice and they call for creative new responses to the corporate ‘re-feudalization of the public sphere’ that is currently thwarting these ideals. |
