    This course will concentrate on diverse forms of popular culture as artistic and cultural representation of identity. We will attempt to understand how meaning is produced and who controls the making of meaning. In other words, how much control do ordinary people have in determining the content and meaning of popular culture, and how much control resides with corporate institutions and powerful individuals? How does popular culture operate in the creation of group and individual identities, and how does it mask, expose, and negotiate differences of class, gender and sexuality, race and ethnicity, religion and other cultural markers? Can alternative institutions and cultural movements exist outside of mass culture, and what happens when they come in contact with it? To answer these questions, the course will combine critical readings with film, music, television, folklore, crafts, mass media, youth culture, and other forms of communication.
