A staff columnist for the Village Voice during the 1980s and 90s, Atkins produced both eye-witness reporting and thoughtful analysis from 1987 and the debut of the AIDS Memorial Quilt in Washington DC to the most recent piece in the book, his 2019 review of Benjamin Moser's biography of Susan Sontag. The book is organized thematically and divided into three, sometimes overlapping sections: \"AIDS: The Body Politic Under Pressure,\" \"Making Sense of Censorship,\" and \"Queer Expressions \u0026amp; Icons.\" A new and comprehensive essay, \"When the Culture War Became the Culture,\" is a stunning survey of post-World War II, US society. With dozens of images of both controversial artworks and newsmakers, the book weaves a complex tapestry of social change. En masse, Atkins' acute readings of politics, media, technology and political struggle help account for the combative character of US society today and imply what we might learn from the past to help modify our fractious present.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-10375600\"\u003eRobert Atkins\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Amarna Books and Media\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/01\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 322\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.28lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.88d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781961869097\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1961869098\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-ART\"\u003eArt\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-ART037000\"\u003eArt \u0026amp; Politics\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-ART\"\u003eArt\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-ART066000\"\u003eLGBTQ+\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-ART\"\u003eArt\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-ART015020\"\u003eAmerican\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Amarna Books and Media","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50037540552941,"sku":"9781961869097","price":39.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/sureshotbooks.com\/es\/products\/aids-art-the-origins-of-the-culture-war-selected-writings-of-robert-atkins-9781961869097","provider":"SureShot Books Publishing LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
