Page 39 - Introducing Cultural Studies
P. 39
Stuart Hall has always insisted
that cultural studies can
actually have a practical
impact on reality. He
challenges intellectuals by
asking: "what real effect are
you making on the world?"
The answer to this question
will determine what cultural
studies "can do, can't, can
never do; but also, what it has
to do, what it alone has a
privileged capacity to do".
