The Assault on Culture

Posted by Kevin on January 28th, 2008 in art, environs, identity

Stuart Home’s brilliant 1987 book THE ASSAULT ON CULTURE: UTOPIAN CURRENTS FROM LETTRISM TO CLASS WAR is available in full, here. While it’s aged a lot, this was the book that introduced me to a lot of revolutionary ideas and cultural critiques. It’s also the book responsible for for starting my years long love-hate relationship with the Situationist International and the Fourth International.

Portuguese...ummm... I mean Spanish Cover

Well worth checking out if you’ve never read it.

    That cover is in Spanish, not Portuguese.

    I don’t know if a Portuguese version exists. There is a Brazilian one (in Portuguese):
