Richard Gilman-Opalsky, author of Spectacular Capitalism: Guy Debord and the Practice of Radical Philosophy:
Guy Debord was one of the greatest radical thinkers of the twentieth century, and his work is increasingly resonant in the twenty-first. In Rethinking the Spectacle, Devin Penner introduces readers to Debord’s theories and their relevance to current debates about radical democracy in the information society.
