Journal of Cultural Economy

 

 Routledge are pleased to announce that, beginning in 2008 with Volume
1, we will be publishing the Journal of Cultural Economy.

The journal is part of the Culture, Economy and the Social publishing
programme of the ESRC Centre for Research on Socio-Cultural Change
(CRESC).  Its concern is with the role played by various forms of
material cultural practice in the organisation of the economy and the
social, and of the relations between them. 

As such, it will provide a unique interdisciplinary forum for work on
these questions from across the social sciences and humanities.  These
include the contributions of actor network theory and science studies to
debates about the 'performativity' of the economy and the social and the
parallel discussions about the distributive nature of economic and
social agency across networks of things and persons that is evident in
social anthropology, and material culture studies.  

 

In cultural studies, feminism and sociology, a range of perspectives
have been deployed to explore the making up of social and organizational
identities, and this has been complemented by approaches to the
governance of economies and of the social stimulated by Foucault's work
on 'governmentality'.  This has been paralleled by important historical
work on the relations between culture, economy and the social.  A
renewed focus on material cultures of production and consumption has
also been animated by the work of Gilles Deleuze and of Pierre Bourdieu.


 

While all of these approaches to the relations between culture, economy
and the social have interacted with and influenced each other, there has
been a relative shortage of debate across and between them.  Journal of
Cultural Economy seeks to remedy this deficiency by providing the
premiere forum for debating the relations between culture, economy and
the social in all their various manifestations.
