The Chronicle: Defending the Property of an Anti-Property Marxist Scholar
Guy Debord, the Marxist and French philosopher who died in 1994, may be rolling over in his grave.
A lawyer representing his widow has threatened Alexander R. Galloway, an associate professor of culture and communication at New York University, with legal action. Mr. Galloway said the lawyer sent him a letter demanding that he cease and desist from distributing his online war game, claiming it infringes on the copyright of the Debord estate. The philosopher had created a similar war game.
