*Public Culture* is a reviewed interdisciplinary journal of cultural
\nstudies, published three times a year for the Institute for Public
\nKnowledge by Duke University Press. Since its founding in 1988, Public
\nCulture has established itself as a prize-winning, field-defining cultural
\nstudies journal. *Public Culture* seeks a critical understanding of the
\nglobal cultural flows and the cultural forms of the public sphere which
\nhave defined the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries. As such,
\nthe journal provides a forum for the discussion of the places and occasions
\nwhere cultural, social, and political differences emerge as public
\nphenomena, manifested in everything from highly particular and localized
\nevents in popular or folk culture to global advertising, consumption, and
\ninformation networks.<\/p>\n
