Overview
Our contemporary moment is preoccupied with arbitrating reality. With the spectre of buzzwords like fake news and post-truth we find a scramble to locate or fix some sort of universal real beneath what are positioned as fake articulations. To engage with this crisis, this collection argues for the importance of a new conjuncture in communication and cultural studies of media. Building on Halls understanding of conjuncture as a way of grasping moments within hegemonic struggle, the essays suggest that the current moment requires a revitalization of the concept of conjuncture.
