Beskrivning
In the wake of a pandemic that tested economies and societies, geopolitical conflict has taken on a new intensity. The Rest and the West locates the origins of this development in the turbulent dynamics of the capitalist world market. Rather than reducing global conflict to a matter of great power rivalries or the process of economic decoupling, Sandro Mezzadra and Brett Neilson investigate the increasing centrality of war to capital operations and to the transformation of capital ism. The goal is to forge a theory of imperialism adequate to a world in which the 'rest' no longer provides a putative unity that defines and opposes the 'West'.

Recensioner i media

What is old and what is new in the world system since the global pandemic? Impatient with pieties and distortions, Sandro Mezzadra and Brett Neilson survey the categories used by Left and Right and unfold their own map of the present moment thick with operative spaces, infrastructural power, and a variable geometry of oppositional politics.
