Opis

Through analysis of popular HBO show 'Dexter' (2006-2013), this text provides a new approach to understanding and confronting vigilantism in American identity. Using the topic as a prism through which to view various key and pressing contemporary social concerns in the post-9/11 era, the text covers a wide range of historical, social and cultural themes, presenting vigilantism as the American nation's very own serial crime.
