I was interested in this idea of the commodification of "revolution". Can
anyone point me to any texts which discuss this ? There are a series of
British ads. for cellular 'phones which use present themselves in the
'style' of a revolutionary poster, with the title slogan"revolution" which
was brought to mind, an example of the present seen visually in utopian
terms, a maneouver which certainly makes radicalizing 'thought-action'
difficult to take root.
Does anyone have any thoughts on this ?
