For, as Dreitzel argues, studies of communicative behaviour should be open to the fact that rules of interpretation are not invariant essences of the social life-world, but are themselves subject to other social processes…[and]…the social world is structured not only by language but also by the modes and forces of material production and by the systems of domination. (Dreitzel 1972:16–17) We cannot study language simply as a closed system, a technical instrument of communication: it is inevitably situated in the whole field of sociopolitical relations within which communication occurs.
They are abstractions by an observer, based on the observation of certain similarities in the way groups of people behave, either in different situations, over time, or both. Even though one can often make accurate predictions about the way groups and individuals will behave over short periods of time, on the basis of such abstractions, as such they do not explain the behaviour. (Barrington-Moore 1967:486) As he observes, the claim to explain (viewing or any other form of) behaviour by simple reference to the existence of different cultural values is to short-circuit the analysis, unless we also offer an account of the social origins of those ‘values’ themselves.
However, while Curran’s proclaimed target is the rather broad (if undefined) one of the ‘new revisionism’, the central focus of this critique seems to fall on a recent (and principally American) inflection of cultural studies, heavily influenced by the work of Fiske (cf. also Schudson 1987). Towards a ‘semiotic democracy’? While Fiske’s work has undoubtedly had the great value of introducing cultural studies to a whole generation of (principally American) students, Curran is correct, in my view, in pointing to the problems attendant on this particular version of cultural studies (see Fiske, 1987b).
