{"product_id":"culture-in-the-age-of-three-worlds","title":"Culture in the Age of Three Worlds","description":"Over the last half of the twentieth century, culture moved to the foreground of political and intellectual life. Suddenly everyone discovered that culture had been mass produced like Ford's cars; the masses had culture and culture had a mass. Culture was everywhere, no longer the property of the cultured or the cultivated. Radical social movements around the globe invented a politics of culture.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eCulture In the Age of Three Worlds\u003c\/i\u003e is a reflection on this cultural turn which was a fundamental aspect of the age of three worlds, that short half century between 1945 and 1989 when it was imagined that the world was divided into three-the capitalist first world, the communist second world, and the decolonizing third world. Recasting the legacies of British cultural studies and the radical traditions of the American studies movement in a global context, Michael Denning explores the political and intellectual battles over the meanings of culture, addresses the rise of a distinctive 'American ideology,' and charts the lineaments of the global cultures that emerged as three worlds gave way to one.","brand":"Verso Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Product","offer_id":56796668789080,"sku":"9781859844496","price":25.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781859844496.jpg?v=1772033455","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/culture-in-the-age-of-three-worlds","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
