Abstract:

Nowadays, the cultural studies of the European and American scholars have gone beyond the scholastic methods of research. They no longer consider the cultural studies merely as a research method or form, and, therefore, jump out of the endless stereotype of defining concepts. Especially, Ben Agger proposes decanonization and despecialization. Instead of turning the culture studied into a kind of empty methodology, he points out that there is no single form of the cultural studies and that the scholastic research method results in its departure from politics. All these cultural theories of "new lefts" in the European and American countries are instructive for China' s accurately understanding of what cultural studies is.

Key words: cultural studies; decentralization; decanonization
