Design and Crime : And Other DiatribesTools Foster, Hal. Design and Crime : And Other Diatribes. London, England: Verso, 2003.
Abstract (English)"In the first half of this compelling collection of essays Hal Foster surveys our new "political economy of design," exploring the marketing of culture and the branding of identity, the development of spectacle-architecture and the rise of global cities. In the second series of texts, he examines the historical relations of modern art and the modern museum, the conceptual vicissitudes of art history and visual studies, the recent travails of art criticism, and the double aftermath of modernism and postmodernism." - p. [4] of cover.
