"The more capitalism behaves in “de-regulatory, ‘anti-statal,’ nomadic, deterritorializing” fashions, the more it “relies on increasingly authoritarian interventions of the state and its legal and other apparatuses.”8 While the “general intellect” in reality doesn’t appear to be that “general” or shared—with the products of the innumerable and increasingly dispersed multitudes becoming copyrighted, commoditized, and legally encapsulated as part of the accumulation of wealth by way of “rent”—the unity of the proletariat has split into three parts, following Žižek’s Hegelian idea of the future: white-collar “intellectual laborers,” blue-collar “old manual working class,” and the “outcasts (the unemployed, those living in slums and other interstices of public space).”9 Any possibility of solidarity amongst these factions appears to have been foreclosed, and in many respects the separation seems absolute. The liberal-multicultural self-image of the cognitive workforce doesn’t rhyme particularly well with the populist, nationalist position of the “old” working class, and both are further ostracized by the unruliness, illegality, and poverty of the outcasts who alienate white collar workers and blue collar workers alike, as they seem to indicate through their fate how imperiled their remaining privileges of citizenship may be.

The end of civilization? totalarlian society are on the rise? You tell me. |
except for 9 to which i say, i do not think it means what you[he/she/it] think it means. i buy apple and i don't apologize. |
No subsidies, less intervention. Three classes is a rather simplistic view. Many people straddle two or all three levels and the positions of artist and entrepreneur (though depending on type may fall within a previously named class) appear ignored. Also, current industry is attempting/has attempted to phase out old-school working class as much as possible (anything that requires additional labor that doesn't require going back to the company to get service, really). Much of our cultural brethren have not grasped much of the capitalism-driven economic system. It's not how much money there is, but how quickly it changes hands. A lot of money sitting in the hands of the few is much less (at least what we can imagine it being able to do) than a much smaller amount changing hands constantly. More to it than bean-counting. |
rich get richer poor get poorer : good deciphering. I too wonder at #9. the entire article is like reading glenn beck in a mirror while drunk. |
