                       How We Use Stories and Why
                       That Matters
                       Cultural Science in Action
                       John Hartley, Curtin University, Australia
                   How We Use Stories and Why That Matters argues
                   that media and networked systems perform and
                   bind group identities, creating bordered fictions
within which economic and political activities are made meaningful.
Using striking examples and compelling analysis, the book shows
what the New York Shakespeare Riots tell us about class struggle,
what Death Cab for Cutie tells us about media, and what Kate Moss’s
wedding dress tells us about authorship. Together, these knowledge
stories tell us about how intimate human communication is organised
and used to stage organised conflict, to test the ‘fighting fitness’ of
contending groups, unwittingly creating new stories, identities and
classes along the way.
