Recenzii

'This is an enormously helpful resource for understanding cultural work and an important contribution to social theory. Banks is brave enough to offer hope, but intelligent enough to show that there are no easy answers to the important political questions he raises'. - Professor David Hesmondhalgh, Institute of Communications Studies, University of Leeds, UK
