Yeah, yet very different books. Debord is political while Baudrillard is just "postmodernist".

I would agree but also add that the implications of Baudrillard's Simulacra and Simulation are extremely relevant to the political sphere we inhabit today.

Sure - Debord just didn't mean to only explain things - he wanted to revolutionize them.
