{"product_id":"spaceships-and-politics-leslie-dale-feldman-9780739120453","title":"Spaceships and Politics: The Political Theory of Rod Serling","description":"Spaceships and Politics: The Political Theory of Rod Serling examines the political themes in The Twilight Zone. In this unique show, Rod Serling used fantasy and the supernatural to explore political ideas such as capital punishment, the individual and the state, war, conformity, the state of nature, prejudice, and alienation. He used aliens and machines to understand human nature. While the themes in The Twilight Zone often reflected political concerns of the time, like the Cold War and post-industrial technology, the messages had broader political implications. This book looks at Serling's mechanistic view of the world and emphasis on fear through Hobbesian themes like diffidence and automata.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Leslie Dale Feldman\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 073912045X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780739120453\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Lexington Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/15\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 168\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.55lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 5.90w x 0.60d","brand":"Leslie Dale Feldman","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48435676479743,"sku":"9780739120453","price":58.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_cac505d8-9254-46ec-81aa-7a0e8df3fd52.jpg?v=1777151957","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/spaceships-and-politics-leslie-dale-feldman-9780739120453","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
