This new collection of papers from the Cultural Disorder project demonstrates various ways in which the concerns of sociology intersect with those of aesthetic disciplines. The contributions range from a study of practitioners in today's British "culture industry" to an essay on the 1999 Biennale in Venice as a sign of the times in the art world; from a discussion of Sigfried Kracauer's understanding of "mass culture" to thoughts inspired by Pierre Bourdieu on "taste games" among young people; from a study of a particular art exhibition in New York to an investigation of cultural tastes among students in Bergen, Norway. Contributors include Erling Bjurström, Göran Bolin, Simon Frith, Jostein Gripsrud, Gertrud Koch, Peter Larsen, Angela McRobbie, Graham Murdock and Janet Wolff. Betegnelse: The papers in this book demonstrate various ways in which the concerns of sociology intersect with those of aestethic disciplines.
