abstract |
Stuart Hall, leading public intellectual and campaigner in the British New Left, was
a progenitor of the field of cultural studies, influential critic of the Thatcher
governments, and a central voice in discussions of postcolonial identity. As Director
of the Birmingham Centre for Contemporary Cultural Studies and Professor of Sociology
at The Open University, Hall shifted a generation of sociologists towards the politics
of representation and its role in the conceptualisation of identity formed through
difference.
<br></br><br></br>Hall’s engagement with Althusser and Gramsci led to a critique of
‘Thatcherism’ the popular authoritarianism of which was anticipated in his investigation
of the deviant figure of the black mugger in <i>Policing the Crisis</i> (1978). Stuart
Hall pioneered an inquiry into the symbolic, ideological and political work ‘race’
is made to do at particular historical conjunctures along with a definition of multiculturalism
foregrounding the dependency of ‘Englishness’ on its colonial history. |
