| Course Objectives: |
The aim of this course is to introduce the students how cultures have evolved in history. Cultural Studies has always been a discipline that links academia to politics, particularly the politics and struggles of the oppressed. It has identified marginalized cultural places, shed light on hidden relationships, and supported political involvement tactics throughout its many moments, stages, and breaks. Cultural Studies is an interdisciplinary field that emerged from literary studies at the end of the 1950s. It focuses on the investigation of networks of meanings, practices, and habits that are embodied in everyday objects, events, and representations of the commons. However, there is disagreement over the objectives and methods of these analyses: What is culture, and how is it studied? In this course, we are going to try to find the “answer” by focusing on different subjects benefiting from the social sciences.
