Cultural studies and Interdisciplinarity operate in a new fashion in current academics. Cultural studies expose the cultural politics of production, distribution, consumption of knowledge; it unearths how culture is represented and made a carrier of knowledge and power in a given context. Interdisciplinarity makes a simultaneous and metatextual approach to arrive at the cultural making of knowledge. In India, both cultural studies and interdisciplinarity are in rapid race amongst and across disciplines. This paper is a modest attempt to understand the dynamics of these academic new fashions and their pedagogic principles.
