Cultural Studies

Academic field of critical theory and literary criticism initially introduced by British academics in 1964 and gradually adopted by other academics throughout the world. Cultural Studies is not a unified theory, rather a diverse field of study associating many different approaches, methods, and academic perspectives. Cultural Studies consists of many different branches of knowledge, including feminist theory, social theory, political theory, history, philosophy, literary theory, media theory, film/video studies, communication studies, political economy, translation studies, museum studies, and art history/criticism to analyze cultural phenomena in various societies.
