- Title
Dissenting the Dominant Narrative: An Analysis of the Occupy Movement in Light of Stuart Hall's Cultural Studies.
- Authors
Rasool, Syed Hanif; Saleem, Amjad
- Abstract
Stuart Hall's theory of cultural studies proposes that mass media maintains the ideology of the dominant class in a society. Grounding its argument on Hall's cultural studies, the paper explores resistance of the Occupy Movement against the hegemonic and dominant discourse mainly operated by the controlled media. It is also explored how and to what extent the Occupy Movement is successful in achieving its main goals; occupying the mainstream discourse, blocking repression of the movement by protecting the write to speak, and by ending the corporate personhood.
