At Theory.org.uk - http://www.theory.org.uk - the website of resources on media, gender and identity, we have just published several brand-new pages as follows: WHOLE NEW SECTION ON ANTHONY GIDDENS, MODERNITY AND SELF-IDENTITY -- Often overlooked as a theorist in this area, Giddens has many interesting ideas about how people construct an identity in late-modern societies, using tools provided by culture. It's an interesting contribution to gender studies, although gender studies probably doesn't think about Giddens too often. Check it out! Several all-new pages here! NEW ESSAYS ON MEDIA AND IDENTITY -- Should gay media culture try to cultivate a universal sense of gay identity? -- Are contemporary men's magazines going to turn men into sexist pigs? THE COMPLETE SET OF TRADING CARDS -- Finally weighing in at 12 collectable cards, the series which took the internet by storm is now available as a complete set of essential reference cards on media, gender and identity. MANY MORE RESOURCES -- On Foucault, queer theory, identity, gender and media, and more! Please forward this message to other relevant lists -- thank you so much.
