- Summary
- "Stuart Hall, in whose honour this volume is compiled, has made significant contributions to contemporary social and political discourse. The essays that constitute this collection; all, in different ways, contend with Hall's methodology, his philosophy; as well as many other dimensions of his intellectual career, More importantly however, they serve to reconnect his work to the social context of his island of birth, Jamaica, and the wider Caribbean."--Jacket.
