This special issue is given over to the work of Jean Baudrillard, who died on 6 March 2007. The issue brings together a number of articles which assess the legacy of Baudrillardian thought in both Francophone and Anglophone scholarship. Further articles discuss Baudrillard's contribution to a specific domain of intellectual enquiry: communication studies, anthropology, architecture, feminism. The issue is intended to provide a broad assessment of Baudrillard's work, and to mirror the breadth and diversity of the thinker's own interests.
