Hey. My name is Ryan Moore, I have a Ph.D. in sociology from the University of California, San Diego (UCSD), and I’ve taught at UCSD, Kansas, Colgate, Florida Atlantic, and CUNY. These entries are mostly based on my lecture notes, with a few book reviews mixed in.
If you want to check out my published writings, there’s my book:
Sells like Teen Spirit: Music, Youth Culture, and Social Crisis (NYU)
