Guy Debord

LA SOCIETE DU SPECTACLE. SECOND EDITION.

£500.00

Paris: Buchet/ Chastel, 1969
20.5 x 14cm, 176pp plus card covers. Second edition. A very good example of this, the most important post-marxist theoretical work of our age. Perhaps like many political theories, there is an insufficient rigour in the supplied concepts and definitions to  allow worthwhile scientific testing of the theories but the re-stating of capitalism's hegemony as being mediated and upheld through psychological mechanisms is important and rings true all the more today. This is the second edition of the book, printed two years after the first in 1969. Some marking to covers and slight browning to pages but over all very good. Rare.
