Résumé
Is Porn Studies the last academic frontier? One might say yes judging from the controversy pornography still stirs up in academic environments. And yet, if one looks back a couple of decades, "Porn Studies" is a fairly well-trodden ground, subject of a considerable amount of literature, university courses, conferences, exhibitions, and film and video programs. This round table discussion traces the development of Porn Studies, critically surveys the state of the field, examines the mutations of explicit sexual representation in digital and web-based formats, explores the representation of ethnicity in porn, and, from a more general perspective, points out the importance of Porn Studies for the different modalities of Anglo-American studies.
