The Cultural Turn

This is the website of the Cultural Turn Conference Series held at the University of California, (1997-2003).  The conferences were dedicated to the productive exchange of ideas between scholars in the humanities and the social sciences on the character, meaning, and role of culture and interpretation in social life.  Approaches include traditional hermeneutics as well as more formalist approaches to meaning, cultural formations and institutional systems.
