Synopsis

A captivating collection of essays documenting a return to the heated conflicts present at the advent of capitalism. IT, immaterial production, financialisation and globalisation have been trumpeted as inaugurating a new phase of capitalism that puts it beyond its violent origins.

Emphasizing class struggles, Caffentzis explores how a wide range of conflicts and antagonisms.
