Nation of Rebels

Mehr zum Buch

Challenging the prevalent myth of a counterculture, the authors explore how radical movements like antiglobalization, feminism, and environmentalism are often misguided in their opposition to consumer society. They argue that merely mocking or wishing for the collapse of the system is counterproductive, inadvertently reinforcing the consumer culture that these movements seek to dismantle. Through cultural criticism, Heath and Potter provide a fresh perspective on the limitations of radical thought in addressing contemporary societal issues.
