Theory, Culture and Society

Theory, Culture & Society was launched in 1982 to cater for the resurgence of interest in culture in the social sciences. It has built up a large international and multidisciplinary readership through its ability to raise and discuss emergent social and cultural issues in an open, non-partisan manner. Theory, Culture & Society has sought to critically explore the relationship between culture and society and advocated a more central role for social and cultural theory in understanding social life. TCS has worked across the borderlines between sociology and cultural studies, the social sciences and the humanities and has moved towards a broader transdisciplinary frame of reference. 'Global Public Life' is an open forum extending the discussions and debates that the academic, peer-reviewed journals Theory, Culture & Society and Body & Society (and associated Theory, Culture & Society Book Series) have been fostering in social and cultural theory, along with the wider social sciences and humanities, for over three decades.
