Week 1 - Barker, Chapter 2

I found this chapter easier to understand than the first one.
I find it kind of ironic to see that the principal problems we encounter in cultural studies come primarily from the fact that we live in a specific culture with its own sets of rules and values.
For Barker, the best way to overcome these problems is to get rid of binary questions (or answers) and to change them in a more open way.
This is a concept I am not sure i have completely grasped and will have to get back to it.
