This book is a return to the themes of Debord's stinging critique of contemporary society, The Society of the Spectacle, first published in 1967. The author demonstrates how these themes were all the more relevant in a period when the "integrated spectacle" was dominant. He shows how aspects of reality as diverse as terrorism and the environment, the mafia and the media, were caught up in the lotic of spectacular society. Pointing the finger clearly at those who benefit from the logic of domination, this book conveys the revolutionary impulse at the heart of situations.
