Two new themes from Culture Unbound: ‘Current Issues in European Cultural Studies’ & ‘Feminist Cultural Studies’
http://www.cultureunbound.ep.liu.se/current-volume.html


Culture Unbound: Journal of Current Cultural Research has published two thematic sections that derive from the conference ‘Current issues in European Cultural Studies’ [http://www.isak.liu.se/acsis/conference-2011?l=sv], held in Norrköping in June 2011. The first section, ‘Reports and Reflections from The Field: Current Issues in European Cultural Studies’, is edited by Ferda Keskin and documents the conference’s ambition to map the current state of cultural studies in different parts of Europe. The second, ‘Feminist Cultural Studies’, is edited by Fanny Ambjörnsson and Hillevi Ganetz and examines the interface between cultural and gender studies today. Together they reflect some of the heterogeneity of the contemporary field of cultural research that also characterises Culture Unbound’s publishing practices.
