Ken Knabb's new translation of Guy Debord's "The Society of the
Spectacle"
is now complete. The entire text is online at
http://www.bopsecrets.org/SI/debord .

Debord's book -- easily the most important radical book of the twentieth

century -- has been translated into over a dozen languages. This new
translation incorporates the best renderings from previous English
versions,
but is clearer and more accurate than any of them.
