Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Short description:
Performative Representation of Working-Class Laborers: They Work Hard for the Money is a transdisciplinary anthology intersecting art theory praxis, comparative literature, film & media studies, performance art, ethnic studies, gender studies, age & aging, geography, and labor studies. The book investigates and analyzes artwork created by artists or collectives working within the dialogue of Postmodernism and current global arts production. The focus on performative aspect of labor as art and affect becomes more sensate and less about the exploited body of labourers, liberating the representation of waged bodies and further diversifying the field of Working-Class Studies.
Jennifer Vanderpool holds a Ph.D. in Art Critical Practices in Trauma Studies from UC Santa Barbara. Her work has been awarded funding from DéPOT in partnership with the Social Science and Humanities Research Council of Canada, Andy Warhol Foundation for theVisual Arts, US-UK Fulbright Commission, Los Angeles Department of Cultural Affairs, Ohio Arts Council, Kunstr?det: Danish Arts Council, Kulturr?det: Swedish Arts Council, and Malmö Stad.
Colin Gardner is a Distinguished Professor Emeritus at UC Santa Barbara.
