| Description: |
This collection of essays explores the philosophical and political dimensions of America as revealed by AMC's Mad Men, investigating topics including freedom, equality, consumerism and justice. |
| Synopsis: |
For seven seasons, AMC's Mad Men captivated audiences with the story of Don Draper, an advertising executive whose personal and professional successes and failures took viewers on a roller coaster ride through America's tumultuous 1960s. More than just a television show about one of advertising's "bad boys," the series investigates the principles of the American regime, exploring whether or not the American Dream is a sustainable vision of human flourishing and happiness. This collection of essays investigates the show's engagement with the philosophic and political foundations of American democracy. |
