9/11 in American Culture
In response to the events following September 11, 2001, a number of leading cultural studies and interpretive qualitative researchers write from their own experiences and hearts. These essays by noted scholars Kellner, Fine, McLaren, Richardson, Denzin, Giroux and others, were written in crisis within days and weeks of September 11. The immediacy of their writing is refreshing and reflects the varied emotional and critical responses that bring meaning to this event. From the poetic to the personal, the theoretical to the historical, these contributions represent intelligent and reflective responses to crises. This collection of essays allows the contributors to tell us how they made sense of these tragic events and predicts what the place of the humanities and the social sciences might hold in an age of terror. The articles were originally published in journals "Qualitative Inquiry" and "Cultural Studies/Critical Methodologies".
