Inhalt: This lecture aims at providing students with a solid understanding of key elements in cultural theory from the relations of culture and power conceptualized by philosophers such as Gramsci and Foucault to contemporary developments. Students will acquire knowledge of theoretical terms that can be related to past and current media phenomena, institutions and practices as well as to social and political issues. In the process they will develop a methodological basis for further cultural-studies courses.
