Interdisciplinary by design and intent, this volume brings together nine essays by scholars from Russia, Britain, and North America, that explore the historical context, and current relevance of the work of the Bakhtin Circle for social theory, philosophy, history and linguistics. The articles argue that exploring the background of Bakhtinian thought is a better way of appreciating their influence on how social and cultural phenomena are analyzed at the end of the 20th century.
