  課程介紹
馬克思主義和文化研究都是廣大龐雜的論述與實踐系統﹐但是自文化研究於1950's開始發跡成形起﹐二者就有許多重疊之處﹒一方面西方馬克斯主義幾經變革下,不斷修正傳統馬克斯主義對文化與基層(Base)製造關係的反應理論,對文化也有了越來越複雜的研究。(其中顯著的例子就是以Jameson 為首的Marxist Literary Group --MLG-- 擴充研究對象,連結後現代主義、後結構主義、文化研究。)另一方面,文化研究──尤其是Stuart Hall所解釋的文化研究──也以Adorno、Raymond Williams 和新左派為師承。

本課的重點就是在研究這兩個論述交界處所同時關心的問題:生產模式和商品化、藝術與意識形態、社會實踐與社會霸權、消費與製造之間的互動關係。

本課會介紹兩個論述的演進,而且會介紹不同理論家的不同重點。

主要思考的問題有:

──製造關係是否決定一切其他的社會關係?

──文化文本如何作社會實踐,作者和閱聽者的角色如何 ──文本如何「再製造」意識形態?在文化線路(circuit of culture)中,意識形態如何被符碼化

──資訊社會的製造模式(mode of production)會產生什麼意識形態?
