Henri Lefebvre's three-volume Critique of Everyday Life isperhaps the richest, most prescient work by one of the twentiethcentury's greatest philosophers. Written at the birth of post-warconsumerism, the Critique was a philosophical inspiration forthe 1968 student revolution in France and is considered to be thefounding text of all that we know as cultural studies, as well as amajor influence on the fields of contemporary philosophy, geography,sociology, architecture, political theory and urbanism. A work ofenormous range and subtlety, Lefebvre takes as his starting-point andguide the "trivial" details of quotidian experience: an experiencecolonized by the commodity, shadowed by inauthenticity, yet one whichremains the only source of resistance and change. This is an enduringly radical text, untimely today only in its intransigence and optimism.
