Zusatztext “In An American Utopia ! Jameson affirms the critical function of utopian thinking and the efficacies of the form itself. He insists that the fundamental function of utopias is to revive a sense of the future! which requires taking aim at the forces that prevent us from venturing out from the comfortingly familiar confines of the present.” —Kathi Weeks “Jameson … gives us good reasons to call back utopia from obscurity.” — Rain Taxi Informationen zum Autor Fredric Jameson, edited by Slavoj Zizek, illustrated by AP Klappentext Fredric Jameson’s pathbreaking essay "An American Utopia" radically questions standard leftist notions of what constitutes an emancipated society. Advocated here are—among other things—universal conscription, the full acknowledgment of envy and resentment as a fundamental challenge to any communist society, and the acceptance that the division between work and leisure cannot be overcome. To create a new world, we must first change the way we envision the world. Jameson’s text is ideally placed to trigger a debate on the alternatives to global capitalism. In addition to Jameson’s essay, the volume includes responses from philosophers and political and cultural analysts, as well as an epilogue from Jameson himself. Many will be appalled at what they will encounter in these pages—there will be blood! But perhaps one has to spill such (ideological) blood to give the Left a chance. Zusammenfassung Controversial manifesto by acclaimed cultural theorist debated by leading writers
