In City of Quartz, Mike Davis examines the socioeconomic history of Los Angeles as a city via a Marxist lens of class struggle and dialectical materialism. Davis delineates the early history of the City of Angels into the behavior of several groups: the Boosters, who founded the city on speculation and real estate, the Debunkers who struggled against Capital, the Noir intelligentsia, and Weimar Exiles.
