Reviews for Cultural Theory After the Contemporary
" Cultural Theory After the Contemporary is among the most important works in materialist cultural theory. Tumino offers a singular and incisive Marxist analysis of daily life that lays bare the complicity of the dominant theories with the culture of capitalism. Commanding in its scope and gravity - an indispensable work." - Steven Wexler, California State University, Northridge
