Pop Goes the Decade: The 2000s comprehensively examines popular culture in the 2000s, placing the culture of the decade in historical context and showing how it not only reflected but also influenced its times.

Finally, a conclusion shows the impact that pop culture in the 2000s has had on the U.S. in the years since.
