The university classroom has been turned into an intensely bitter battlefield. Conservatives are attacking the academys ability to teach and at times its very right to educate. As the dust begins to settle the contributors to this volume weigh in with a constructive and wideranging statement on the progressive possibilities of teaching. This is in many ways a book for the morning after the PC Wars when the shouting dies down and the imperatives of pedagogy remain. Asserting a complex interrelated agenda for teachers and students Class Issues is an anthology of essays on radical teaching. Leading scholars of literary and cultural studies queer studies ethnic studies and workingclass literature examine the challenges that confront progressive pedagogy as well as the histories that lie behind the achievements of cultural studies. Class Issues offers a plan for the construction of an alternative public sphere in the rapidly changing space of the classroom in the academy. Class Issues is a compilation of important new work on the tradition of radical teaching as well as forceful suggestions for the mobilization of radical consciousness.
