Cultural studies emerged out of a juncture of sociology, literature, language studies, in the 80s at Birmingham University in the UK. The idea behind cultural studies, is that it sought to address a gap that emerged within these other disciplines, and that is how culture is used, created, acted up, and how it influences power dynamics between people, identity formation, social resistance etc. Whereas sociology was interested in how economic situations might influence the working conditions of a particular class, cultural studies, might address how the idea of class was formed for the purpose of social segregation, and how popular culture might be used to resist or transgress class relations. In other words, cultural studies began to ask deeper questions about assumptions of power, langugae and social structures, and how these were created and maintained through langugae, media, and communication.
