Cultural Sociology

Aims and objectives:

The purpose of the Cultural Sociology Group is to provide a focus for the empirical and theoretical study of culture. Emerging out the resurgence of academic interest in culture, the group encourages lively debate regarding conceptions of culture and approaches to cultural analysis. This is undertaken in sessions at annual conferences and by encouraging communication and collaboration between its members.
