Bunyard Tom - Debord Time And Spectacle Hegelian Marxism And Situationist Theory - Paperback

Binding: Paperback
Description: In Debord Time and Spectacle Tom Bunyard provides a detailed philosophical study of the theoretical work of Guy Debord and the Situationist International. Drawing on evidence from Debord's books films letters and notes Bunyard reconstructs the Hegelian and Marxian ideas that support Debord's central concept of spectacle . This affords a reconsideration of Debord's theoretical claims and a reinterpretation of his broader work that foregrounds his concerns with history and lived time. By bringing situationist theory into dialogue with recent reinterpretations of Marx this book also identifies problems in Debord's critique of capitalism. It argues however that the conceptions of temporality and spectacle that support that critique amount to a philosophy of praxis that remains relevant today.
