Affected Labour in a Cafe Culture - The Atmospheres and Economics of 'Hip' Melbourne - Alexia Cameron

What does it mean to work in the 'hip' postmodern economy? This book develops the concept of 'affected labour' within Melbourne, Australia. Through the lens of cafe and bar culture, the book provides an ethnographic investigation into the ways that affect arises, circulates, sticks and dissipates over the course of everyday encounters.
