Time and Commodity Culture - Frow, John (Professor of English, Professor of English, University of Queensland, Australia)

Time and Commodity Culture is a detailed and theoretically sophisticated account of the cultural systems of postmodernity. Through a series of four linked essays on postmodern theory, on tourism, on gift exchange and commodity exchange, and on the social organization of memory it explores some of the implications of the commodification of culture for the contemporary and postmodern world.
