In this context ‘cultural policy’ is taken to mean a body of operational principles, administrative and budgetary practices and procedures which provide a basis for cultural action by the State. Obviously, there cannot be one cultural policy suited to all countries; each Member State determines its own cultural policy according to the cultural values, aims and choices it sets for itself.

  • Queering the Grammar School Boy: Class, Sexuality and Authenticity in the Works Of
    Queering the Grammar School Boy: Class, Sexuality and Authenticity in the works of Colin MacInnes and Ray Gosling Lucy Robinson (University of Sussex) and Ben Jones (University of East Anglia) 1 Introduction In their writings on ‘the Teenager’ (often described as ‘the Boy’) between 1959 and 1961, Colin MacInnes and Ray Gosling translated teenage experiences and constructed memorable teenage subjects for both contemporary and later audiences. In this chapter, we will suggest that taken as a whole MacInnes’s work constructs a complex understanding of ‘the Boy’s’ political possibilities. By integrating an analysis his novelistic work with his journalistic and activist writing, we will demonstrate the complexity of MacInnes’s ‘Boy’ as an autonomous, queer political agent, embodied in the ultimate Boy: Ray Gosling. The two writers were close friends with MacInnes acting as a mentor to the younger Gosling, who in turn functioned as something of a confidant to the older man. We use the term ‘queer’ to mean both ‘mode of analysis and deconstruction relating to identity politics and resistance to the norm, and as a mode of description relating to those who identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender.’2 For us, the significance of MacInnes’s and Gosling’s sexuality lies not in providing us with clues to their psycho-sexual motivation. Nor are we arguing that the Teenager was externally queered by gay Svengalis of the pop and fashion worlds. For our purposes, the Teenager is in itself a queered subject. We will show how MacInnes’s one time flat mate, Ray Gosling, described as the ‘Professional Teenager’ constructed and occupied a disruptive space between dependent child and productive adult.
