Descrizione Las Vegas in Singapore
Looks at moments in Singapore's and Las Vegas' pasts when the moral and legal status of gambling changed significantly, and examines how modern states and corporations capitalized on it. Lee Kah-Wee argues that the historical project of the control of vice is also about the control of space and capital.
