Spectacular Logic in Hegel and Debord: Why Everything is as it Seems de Eric-John Russell

Spectacular Logic in Hegel and Debord: Why Everything is as it Seems: Critical Theory and the Critique of Society

Autor Eric-John Russell Cuvânt înainte de Étienne Balibar
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 10 mar 2021
Revisiting Guy Debord's seminal work, The Society of the Spectacle (1967), Eric-John Russell breathes new life into a text which directly preceded and informed the revolutionary fervour of May 1968. Deepening the analysis between Debord and Marx by revealing the centrality of Hegel's speculative logic to both, he traces Debord's intellectual debt to Hegel in a way that treads new ground for critical theory. Drawing extensively from The Phenomenology of Spirit (1807) and Science of Logic (1812), this book illustrates the lasting impact of Debord's critical theory of 20th-century capitalism and reveals new possibilities for the critique of capitalism.

Recenzii

Spectacular Logic in Hegel and Debord both contributes to this restoration and offers some revisions of the studies that preceded it. But in doing so, it provides far more than a mere analysis of Hegel's influence on Debord.
Eric-John Russell is a brilliant and ingenious young writer and critic who needs and deserves to be heard; it takes courage to listen. Find it.
Debord was at risk of getting reduced to a media theorist or an appendix to historical avant-gardes, fashionable and superseded at the same time. Russell's book helps to put Debord in his right place in the history of critical thought, especially by pointing out his advancement of Hegel's philosophy. By utilizing hitherto unpublished material from the Guy Debord archive at the Bibliothèque nationale de France, Russell upholds with exacting detail and formidable prowess Debord's concept of the spectacle as a critical theory of society.
This book makes a serious and valuable contribution to the study of Debord's work. It demonstrates that his theory of 'spectacle' is not just a critique of the mass media, but rather a nuanced Hegelian social ontology that echoes some of the Frankfurt School's central concerns. Recommended.
