Ideology Materialized; Comments on the Society of the Spectacle

Wednesday, August 2 at 3pm in Hagerty 159 we discuss the concluding chapter, Ideology Materialized, theses 212-221. Since this reading is relatively short and we shall meet again on August 9 to discuss Debord’s 1988 Comments on the Society of the Spectacle, it seems like a good idea to add sections 1-11 (pp. 2-14) of the  Comments for August 2. The text can be found here. The French original can be found here.

Those who want some elaboration on the meaning of praxis for Debord might look at Marx’s Theses on Feuerbach.

Melissa Dykes probably never heard of Guy Debord, but had she read about the integrated spectacle maybe she would not be puzzled by the current events described here.
