(real time availability for all sections)

This course looks at the role of communications in the study of culture. We will learn about the importance of institutions, ideologies, and artifacts as we investigate the relationship between cultural practices and power. Much of what we say, who we are, and what we do is negotiated through communication technologies, and this course will investigate those ideas as they connect to concepts of representation, interpellation, and identity.
