John Hunt Publishing

A bestselling analysis of the ways in which capitalism has presented itself as the only realistic political-economic system.

Where now for the secret, the contemplative, the quiet and subterranean in our cities? The question may no longer be what spaces we wish to engage with but when are they?

There is no absolute truth but there is absolutely everything

Argues for a Modernism of everyday life, immersed in questions of socialism, sexual politics and technology. This work features chapters ranging from a study of industrial and brutalist aesthetics in Britain, the Sexpol of Wilhelm Reich in film and design, and the alienation effects of Brecht and Hanns Eisler on record and on screen.

This book proposes a theory of architectural failure; a radical way to approach memory and history in the city.
