Mix it up

Mix It Up covers a wide range of sociological research, terms, concepts, and theories in an accessible and engrossing way. Grazian first introduces readers to three theoretical approaches to the sociology of media and pop culture. These approaches help explain how pop culture fads, fashions, and phenomena succeed and decline over time and what the sociological consequences of their popularity may be. Grazian then turns to the creation and consumption of pop culture - and the increasingly blurred boundary between the two. -- Provided by publisher.
