In The Political Economy of the Spectacle and Postmodern Caste,
John Asimakopoulos analyzes the political economy of the society of
the spectacle, a philosophical concept developed by Guy Debord and
Jean Baudrillard. Using the analytical tools of social science and
historical research, Asimakopoulos reveals that all societies in
every epoch have been and continue to be caste systems legitimized
by various ideologies. He concludes that there is no such thing as
capitalism (or socialism)-only a caste system hidden behind
capitalist ideology. Asimakopoulos's approach is broad,
interdisciplinary, and draws on both quantitative and qualitative
data to weave a narrative that is clear, well written, and offers
much to both specialists and general readers.
