For more than 40 years, the radically subjective style of participatory jourbanalism known as Gonzo has been inextricably associated with the American writer Hunter S. Thompson. Around the world, however, other jourbanalists approach unconventional material in risky ways, placing themselves in the middle of off-beat stories, and relate those accounts in the supercharged rhetoric of Gonzo. In some cases, Thompson's influence is apparent, even explicit; in others, writers have crafted their jourbanalistic provocations independently, only later to have that work labelled "Gonzo." In either case, Gonzo jourbanalism has clearly become an international phenomenon. In Fear and Loathing Worldwide, scholars from fourteen countries discuss writers from Europe, the Americas, Africa and Australia, whose work bears unmistakable traces of the mutant Gonzo gene. In each chapter, "Gonzo" emerges as a powerful but unstable signifier, read and practiced with different accents and emphases in the various national, cultural, political, and jourbanalistic contexts in which it has erupted. Whether immersed in the Dutch crack scene, exploring the Polish version of Route 66, following the trail of the 2014 South African General Election, or committing unspeakable acts on the bus to Turku, the writers described in this volume are driven by the same fearless disdain for convention and profound commitment to rattling received opinion with which the "outlaw jourbanalist" Thompson scorched his way into the American consciousness in the 1960s, '70s, and beyond.
