Just after the collapse of the USSR, Fredrik Jameson wrote that, for most, it had become easier to imagine the End of the World than to contemplate the End of Capitalism. Well, The Econoclasts (that is, Wolfgang and I) will be contemplating exactly that. LIVE at the Unherd Club. On 18th September. For my part, here is an advanced notice of what I shall be on about: As I have been arguing a while, (unbeknownst to most) capitalism has already been murdered by cloud capital. Moreover, we are now facing a choice between a vicious technofeudalism (see my 2023 book TECHNOFEUDALISM: What killed capitalism) or a libertarian technologically advanced anarchosyndicalism (see my 2021 novel ANOTHER NOW). As for Wolfgang's take on what lies ahead after capitalism's burial, mercifully I have no clue! That's why I am so looking forward to our live event on 18th September!
