ISBN-13: 9781529200157, 978-1529200157. Daniel Smith demonstrates that the comic sensibility pervading contemporary humour is as much 'speaking truth to power' as it is realising one's position 'in' power.

About this product
Product Information
What is it about stand-up comedy that allows comedians to use it as a vehicle of self-expression and rumination on their identities? Why is it now a place for social and cultural critique, from the existential to the political? This book demonstrates that the sociological organisation of stand-up comedy allows it to flourish as a space of identity politics.Product Identifiers
