The book shows how certain authors position their rugged consumers within the intertwined American myths of primal nature and rugged individualism, creating left- and right-libertarian maker communities that are skeptical of both traditional political institutions and (in its pre-neoliberal state) globalised corporate capitalism. 606 $aAmerican literature$y20th century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aConsumption (Economics) in literature 606 $aMaterial culture in literature 606 $aConsumption (Economics)$zUnited States 606 $aMaterial culture$zUnited States 615 0$aAmerican literature$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aConsumption (Economics) in literature. 615 0$aMaterial culture in literature. 615 0$aConsumption (Economics) 615 0$aMaterial culture 676 $a810.9/3553 700 $aMalewitz$b Raymond$01704215 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910812335403321 996 $aThe practice of misuse$94090035 997 $aUNINA
