The Micro-Politics of Capital

More about the book

Examining the interplay between economy and culture, this work reinterprets Marx through modern critiques of subjectivity by theorists like Althusser and Foucault. It explores how contemporary capitalism intertwines commodity production with the formation of desires, beliefs, and knowledge, emphasizing the need to understand these relationships without reducing one to the other. Jason Read delves into the complexities of this intersection, offering insights into the micro-political dimensions of capital in today's society.
