Over 25 years ago, Raymond Williams' "Keywords: A Vocabulary of Culture and Society" set the standard for how we understand and use the language of culture and society. Now, three luminaries in the field of cultural studies have assembled a volume that builds on and updates Williams' classic, reflecting the transformation in culture and society since its publication. ""New Keywords: A Revised Vocabulary of Culture and Society"" is a state-of-the-art reference for students, teachers and culture vultures everywhere.
Assembles a stellar team of internationally renowned and interdisciplinary social thinkers and theorists


Showcases 142 signed entries - from "art," "commodity," and "fundamentalism" to "youth," "utopia," "the" "virtual," and "the West" - that capture the practices, institutions, and debates of contemporary society


Builds on and updates Raymond Williams's classic Keywords: A Vocabulary of Culture and Society, by reflecting the transformation in culture and society over the last 25 years


Includes a bibliographic resource to guide research and cross-referencing

Reviews

"We think in words. A careful discussion of the words we use helps us to think more clearly about modern western society. All academic libraries catering for the humanities or social sciences should consider requiring a reference copy, as should those public libraries which still feel their mission is to assist their readers in thinking clearly, rather than just to provide them with entertainment." "Martin Guha, King's College London"
