Description

Explore the complex relationship between language and economic systems in The Discourses of Capitalism by Christian W. Chun. Published by Routledge, this book investigates how everyday people interpret and discuss capitalism in the wake of the 2007-2008 global economic crisis. Through an analysis of responses to Steve Lambert's street art installation, Capitalism Works for Me!, the text examines the specific language used to build common-sense understandings of the economy. Readers will gain insights into how individuals make sense of capitalism's role within their personal lives and professional work environments. This study moves beyond mainstream media analysis to look at the actual discourses used by the public. It is an essential resource for those studying the intersection of language, society, and political economy, providing a unique perspective on how economic concepts are constructed and communicated in daily life.
