“Identity is complicated – everybody thinks they’ve got one.”
We should use creative methods to show our identity. It can be presented as a whole, rather than a list.

Stuart Hall
Janet Woollacott offers a useful critique of Policing the Crisis, a key work by Stuart Hall. The work reflects an analysis of the signifying practices of the mass media from the perspective of Marxist culturalist theory inflected through gramsci’s theoy of hegemony, and an Althusserian conception of the media as an ideological state apparatus largely concerned with the reproductions of dominant ideologies.
For Hall, the mass media do tend to reproduce interpretations, which serve the interests of the ruling class, but they are also ‘a field of ideological struggle.’
