More about the book

Exploring the evolution of political nature over two million years, this book delves into various cultural performances that have legitimized political regimes throughout history. It examines case studies from diverse contexts, including initiation rituals in the Congo, Bertolt Brecht's dramas, and puppet plays in Tokugawa Japan. The final section addresses the decline of social cohesion in the U.S. post-1965, highlighting how films like The Godfather and Joker have contributed to the rise of polarized politics and authoritarianism.
