À propos de cet audio

Stuart Hall has wrote that social character is definitely not a "fixed quintessence...lying unaltered outside history and culture", and isn't "[a] for the last time...to which we can make some last and total Return", yet is "built through memory, dream, account and fantasy...made inside the talk of history and culture", and consequently can't be basically characterized or "recuperated" like some lost, bona fide being (in Rutherford 1990: 226).

To think about the possibility of social character, in this manner, is to look at the lines and talks of its development and to perceive the presence inside it of numerous implications. As the presentation recommended, the USA is where various personalities mix and impact, a gathering, an variety, continually delivering and replicating new selves and trans-shaping old ones and, in this manner, can't profess to have a solitary, shut character with a particular arrangement of qualities.

A few Americans, be that as it may, incline toward the idea of character to be authoritative, fixed and obviously encompassed by unmistakable limits and definitions. For instance, some would mind to consider white, male and hetero as the standard proportion of "Americanness", with a deep regard for the banner and a solid feeling of local character, say, toward the South or to Louisiana or Boston. Nonetheless, these are ideological places that are not shared or agent of the country in general; to be sure, no arrangement of convictions or qualities can be, and this is accurately the point. Rather, America must be deciphered or 'read' as a perplexing, multifaceted content with a rich cluster of various characters and occasions, inside which exist many challenging voices recounting to different and various stories. Furthermore, likewise with any such content, there are interior strains, shows and inconsistencies which contribute, without a doubt, establish what may be called its personality.
