- Authors
Moser, Keith
- Abstract
The article examines the zenith reached by the crisis of simulation, which sociologist and theorist Jean Baudrillard alludes to several of his works, with U.S. President Donald Trump's administration. Topics discussed include the reference of Trump's inauguration crowd to the expression "alternative facts," and the erosion of the political establishment in the philosophy of Baudrillard.
