[ecrea] Two new themes from Culture Unbound: ‘Current Issues in European Cultural Studies’ & ‘Feminist Cultural Studies’

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.
