Hatred Of Capitalism

Description

Jean Baudrillard meets Cookie Mueller in this gathering of French theory

and new American fiction. Compiled in 2001 to commemorate the passing of an

era, Hatred of Capitalism brings together highlights of Semiotext(e)''s most

beloved and prescient works. Semiotext(e)''s three-decade history mirrors

the history of American thought. Founded by French theorist and critic

Sylvere Lotringer as a scholarly journal in 1974, Semiotext(e) quickly took

on the mission of melding French theory with the American art world and

punk underground. Its Foreign Agents, Native Agents, Active Agents and

Double Agents imprints have brought together thinkers and writers as

diverse as Gilles Deleuze, Assata Shakur, Bob Flanagan, Paul Virillio, Kate

Millet, Jean Baudrillard, Michelle Tea, William S. Burroughs, Eileen Myles,

Ulrike Meinhof, and Fanny Howe. In Hatred of Capitalism, editors Kraus and

Lotringer bring these people together in the same volume for the first

time.
