SynopsisAngela McRobbie's new collection of essays considers the social consequences of cultural proliferation and the social basis of aesthetic innovation.The over-arching theme for this new collection of essays by Angela McRobbie is the 'aestheticisation of everyday life'. In Gender adn Popular Culture the author examines the cultural significance of young British artisits, the politics of dance music, fashion as a social phenomenon and the impact of feminism on popular culture. While strongly defending cultural studies against its critics, the author argues for new perspectives in cultural studies. These inlcude the cultural economy as a labour market, and issues of cultural policy., How do different artistic and cultural practices develop in the contemporary consumer culture? Providing a new direction in cultural studies as well as a vigorous defence of the field, Angela McRobbie's new collection of essays considers the social consequences of cultural proliferation and the social basis of aesthetic innovation. In the wake of postmodernism, McRobbie offers a more grounded and even localised account of key cultural practices, from the new populism of young British artists, including Damien Hirst and Tracy Emin, to the underground London sounds of drum'n'bass, discussing music by artists such as Tricky, Talvin Singh and Goldie; from the new sexualities in girls' and women's magazines like More and Sugar to the dynamics of fashion production and consumption. Throughout the essays the author returns to issues of livelihoods and earning a living in the cultural economy, while at the same time pressing the issue of cultural value., How do different artistic and cultural practices develop in the contemporary consumer culture?
