In the last 30 years, bouncers have emerged as iconic gatekeepers of contemporary cool, exclusivity & social capital in urban centres around the world. Rigakos critiques the supposed liberating & expressive potential of nightclubs by theorising them within the linked themes of risk, consumption & security in late capitalism.
