ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
This work is the outcome of discussions with colleagues and students over many years, and I am deeply grateful for their enthusiasm and generosity in grappling with the ideas in it. Felicity Plester at Palgrave commissioned the book, and I thank her for her support and patience, and Sophie Auld for her diligence in managing the production process. Luke Bacon, Wendy Bacon, Chrisanthi Giotis, Nicole Gooch, and Peter Mares read the manuscript in various sections and stages, and Marion Gevers provided expert proofreading against a tight deadline. Thanks to Verso for permission to reproduce the graphic of the Harvey-Lefebvre matrix, and to Hans Haacke for the images of his work. It has been the intellectual achievement and generosity of Hans Haacke and Izzy Stone that has inspired this work throughout. Wendy Bacon was there at the inception that crisp winter’s morning in New York, 2008, and has been intimately engaged with it every step of the way to its conclusion. The rigour of her journalism is a constant beacon. The book would not exist but for her.
