>and its reciprocal relationship with Cultural Studies,
>thus positioning it as the academic discipline which
>insists on the conceptualisation  of culture as the
>field of interaction of power and resistance. Moving
>back and forth between theorizing and researching,
>between ontological and
>critical hermeneutics the conference seeks to
>investigate the potential of Cultural Studies as a
>troublemaking discipline which can provide a new
>vocabulary for social research and a constant
>challenge  to more traditional disciplines along with
>the danger of the institutionalisation of
>troublemaking.
>Key Note Speakers :
>Professor Gary Hall, co-editor Culture Machine,
>Coventry University
