Book excerpt: "Capital and Language offers a new understanding of the current international economic stage and crucial post-Marxist guidance for confronting capitalism in its newest form. Capital and Language also provides a warning call to a Left still nostalgic for a Fordist construct-for a time before factory turned into office (and office into home), and before labor itself became linguistic." "Capital and Language focuses on the causes behind the international economic and financial depression of 2001, and on the primary instrument that the U.S. government has since been using to confront them: war. After mercantillism, industrialism, and the post-Fordist culmination of the New Economy, Marazzi points to capitalism's fourth stage: the "War Economy" that is presently upon us."--BOOK JACKET.
