Stuart Hall, in whose honour this volume is compiled, has made significant contributions to contemporary social and political discourse.  Constantly praised for his scholarly prescience, he was at the helm of the forging and definition of the discipline of Cultural Studies and nurtured an entire cadre of young intellectuals who continue to make remarkable contributions in the fields of Cultural Studies and Social Criticism.

The essays that constitute this collection, all, in different ways, contend with Hall’s methodology, his philosophy, as well as many other dimensions of his rich and textured intellectual career. More importantly however, they serve to reconnect his work to the social context of his island of birth, Jamaica, and the wider Caribbean.

 

Brian Meeks is Professor of Social and Political Change at the University of the West Indies, Mona, and Director of the Centre for Caribbean Thought.
