Lawrence Grossberg: Cultural Studies in a New World

Cultural research is a study of popular culture, such as music, broadcasts, and movies, or a study on reproduction and discourse, so there is the misconception that it romanticizes individual resistance rather than structure. Cultural researchers stress the behavior of discourse and reproduction, the link between culture and society, the practice and ritual of identity, but often what is considered necessary is a misunderstanding of cultural research. Cultural research should always be contextual and can be done through the connections between reality and theory. Cultural research is an intellectual practice that is now interested in this and attempts to imagine and try the possibility of new hopes and cultural politics. A global cultural researcher, Lawrence Grothberg, who presents the theory and practice of these cultural studies has been published. The first book to be introduced to the country effectively embodys the intellectual heritage and academic efforts of Grossberg over 50 years, while at the same time combining meaningful material with Korean readers. The criteria focused on the formation of cultural studies and the key challenges, the mass culture and the modernity that Grosberg's research shows. Part 1 is ‘The Formation and New Challenge of Cultural Studies’ and considers the formation and major discussion of American cultural studies. While there are still various opinions about the definition of cultural research, cultural research is also a historical formation of different development processes. There was a specific beginning of the modern culture institute in Birmingham, where the Grosberg studied and then announced the beginning of cultural research to American universities.
