More about the book
The book critiques the contemporary understanding of the everyday as merely a space for popular culture and consumerism, arguing that this perspective diminishes its revolutionary potential. John Roberts reintroduces radical political theory, challenging the oversimplification of cultural democratization. By engaging with influential thinkers like Lukács and Benjamin, he highlights the everyday's significance in discussions of ideology, revolution, and praxis. This work provides a politicized lens on cultural theory, making it essential for those interested in deeper ideological implications.
