Knowing Your Place argues that the cultural dominance of the city has been reinforced by postmodern social theory's near fixation on the urban and the sophisticated. The essays explore rural identity in a number of cultures and situations, and look at issues of contemporary interest. Topics covered include the uses of popular and high culture, the explosion of high technology, the social and economic impact of ecological policy, the role of labour in the global marketplace, museum curatorship, and post-colonial politics.
