The Society of the Spectacle
by Guy Debord , translated by Ken Knabb
The Society of the Spectacle is a 1967 book by Guy Debord, which developed concepts relating to the "gaze" of modern culture and commodity fetishism. The book also contains sharp criticism of Leninism in all its variants and presents a direct democratic alternative. It continues to influence a variety of philosophical and political movements, notably anarchism and anti-capitalism. — Excerpted from The Society of the Spectacle on Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

Translated on February 2002 of Guy Debord’s La Société du spectacle (Paris, 1967).
