Description: Gilligan Unbound : Pop Culture in the Age of Globalization, Paperback by Cantor, Paul A., ISBN 0742507793, ISBN-13 9780742507791, Brand New, Free shipping in the US Using pop culture as a window through which to study ideological developments in America, Cantor (English, U. of Virginia) compares the optimistic Americanization of the globe projected by 1960s shows Gilligan's Island and Star Trek with the decentering of America revealed by more cynical 1990s shows such as The Simpsons and The X-Files. Cantor asks readers to keep open minds as he parses campy television episodes and Hollywood blockbusters for serious conclusions about globalization, the end of the nation-state, and the nuclear family.
