Description

Dead Pledges: Debt, Crisis, and Twenty-First-Century Culture explores how U.S. culture responds to the collapse of the financialized consumer credit economy in 2008. This work from Stanford University Press connects debt theory to cultural form, examining how artists, filmmakers, and writers re-imagine the concepts of owning and owing. By looking at a wide range of media, the book maps the contemporary landscape of debt. It covers everything from popular entertainment and horror movies to novels, poems, and photojournalism. This study provides a way to understand how post-crisis productions reflect a world where debt defines economic life. Whether you are interested in avant-garde art or mainstream media, this book offers a deep look at how creative works react to economic shifts and the reality of modern financial systems.
