Publisher Description:

The interconnections of gender and popular culture are multiple and varied, and serious scholarly work that examines gender through the lens of popular culture--and vice versa--is of central and growing significance in the academy. This is not only because battles about gender roles, rights, and ideologies are often fought in popular-cultural forms, but also because there is a growing realization that gender inequality stubbornly persists despite the existence of formal legal parity in many jurisdictions.

Now, this timely new four-volume collection from Routledge's Critical Concepts in Media and Cultural Studies series brings together a well-considered balance of foundational and cutting-edge scholarship. With a focus on examples drawn from digital culture, fashion, music, mass and new media--and an intersectional approach to gender--Gender and Popular Culture provides a comprehensive and exciting 'one-stop' compendium. With a full index and introductions newly written by the editors, it is an indispensable reference resource for researchers and students.
