This collection of essays aims to refashion cultural analysis into a hard-edged tool for the study of American society and culture, addressing topics including the 9/11 terrorist attacks, abortion, sports doping, and the Jonestown massacre-suicides. Grounded in the thought of Friedrich Nietzsche, the essays advance an inquiry into the nature of culture in American society. 410 0$aLoose can(n)ons ;$vVolume 3. 606 $aEthnology$zUnited States 607 $aUnited States$xCivilization$y1970- 615 0$aEthnology 676 $a973.92 700 $aDrummond$b A.
