May 2, 2003 symposium at 9AM-4PM in the Red Room, College 8, University of California, Santa Cruz
Sponsored by the Popular Research Cluster in collaboration with the Center for Cultural Studies

Invited scholars will present current research in order to not only stimulate productive conversations about the very definition of the category, "popular culture," but also to encourage deeper analysis into specific instances of "the popular" that displace, relocate, and reconfigure ideas about "the popular."
