Nascar, Sturgis, And The New Economy Of Spectacle, Paperback / softback Book

Nascar, Sturgis, And The New Economy Of Spectacle Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

In this provocative and original monograph, Krier and Swart argue that NASCAR and the carnivalesque displays at Sturgis's mass motorcycle rallies reveal how spectator events of this scale have come to function as intensive sites of profit making in contemporary capitalism.

The authors lucidly trace the historical development of these economic spectacles and analyse the structural components that sustain them.
