Description: Scorched Earth : Beyond the Age to a Post-capitalist World, Hardcover by Crary, Jonathan, ISBN 1784784443, ISBN-13 9781784784447, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US Refusing the world of late capitalism
In this uncompromising essay, Jonathan Crary presents the obvious but unsayable reality: our “ age” is synonymous with the disastrous terminal stage of global capitalism and its financialisation of social existence, mass impoverishment, ecocide, and military terror. Scorched Earth surveys the wrecking of a living world by the internet complex and its devastation of communities and their capacities for mutual support.
This polemic by the author of 24/7 dismantles the presumption that social media could be an instrument of radical change and contends that the networks and platforms of transnational corporations are intrinsically incompatible with a habitable earth or with the human interdependence needed to build egalitarian post-capitalist forms of life.
