Cultural Studies is an exciting field at the intersection of the humanities and social sciences. It offers energetic new takes on everyday life, culture and art, and encourages creativity, critical thought, and social responsibility. Cultural Studies provides tools for observing, grasping, and intervening into trends and transformations in the ways we live our lives; at home, in the workplace, and out in the streets, online and off the grid. It is passionate about justice, equality, and sustainability, and committed to interrogating power relations in the modern world.
The Department of Cultural Studies at the Faculty of Social Sciences, University of Ljubljana, was established in 1995. It is designed as an interdisciplinary unit, combining different approaches to cultural studies and analysis. The department is responsible for research and curriculum development; it connects teaching and research staff, as well as experts and students, active in the broader sociocultural context, committedly, creatively, and responsibly contributing to the world around us.
