The Society of the Spectacle is a 1967 work of philosophy and Marxist critical theory by Guy Debord, in which the author develops and presents the concept of the Spectacle. The book is considered a seminal text for the Situationist movement.
The spectacle is the inverted image of society in which relations between commodities have supplanted relations between people, in which "passive identification with the spectacle supplants genuine activity.
Guy Debord's The Society of the Spectacle is an enormously influential book — one of the most influential in the Marxist tradition. However, it's also notoriously difficult. Debord's style of writing was highly condensed.
