Rezensionen
'Chapter by chapter, this trans-disciplinary anthology offers the very best contemporary analyses of the cultural-political economy interface available. It is an important intervention that should serve pedagogy in a wide variety of disciplines while disrupting the tendencies that have separated cultural and economic research agendas.' - Michael Shapiro, University of Hawaii at Mãnoa, USA

'The contributors to this excellent collection seek not to bury political-economy yet neither do they wish to praise it uncritically. Adding to and engaging with the various theoretical strands that make up the broad church of cultural economy, the volume's aim is to show why injecting the 'cultural dimension' into analyses enriches rather than detracts from our understanding of how the political and the economic work separately and together, and what's at stake if 'culture' is jettisoned at the outset. Containing theoretically informed engagements with practices as varied as ethical tourism, to the war on terror, to the rise of the 'talent world'...through to a provocative and concluding engagement with the whole project of 'cultural political economy' offered by Rob Walker, this volume is an important contribution to the task of making sense of the cultural dynamics that give motion to contemporary capitalisms.' - Michael Pryke, Faculty of Social Sciences, The Open University

'This book boldly opens up an intriguing and important field of inquiry that explores the intersections, boundaries, and inseparable qualities of culture, politics and the economy. It acknowledges, criticizes and reinterprets past efforts to conceptualize the relationships between these three categories but it is also filled with exciting new theoretical insights and novel analyses of particular historical and contemporary transnational practices. The chapters are consistently high quality, wide ranging in their themes, while working together to illuminate the value of cultural political economy as a field of inquiry. After reading this book some of the most familiar concepts and assumptions that we use in thinking about culture, politics and the economy do not look the same anymore.' - Tony Porter, McMaster University, Canada
