First Edition
Paperback. Condition: Fine. 1st. xxiii, 194 pages; 23 cm. Tight, clean copy. *** "This is the first intellectual biography of Guy Debord, prime mover of the Situationist International (1957-1972) and author of The Society of the Spectacle, the seminal book of the May 1968 uprising in France. Anselm Jappe offers a powerful corrective to the continual attempts to incorporate Debord's theoretical work into French theory. Jappe focuses, to the contrary, on Debord's debt to the Hegelian-Marxist tradition, to Karl Korsch and Georg Lukacs, and more generally to left-Marxist currents of council communism. His close reading of Debord's magnum opus is unique among the great flood of writing on the Situationists in recent decades. This PM reprint edition benefits from a new author's preface and a bibliographical update." - Publisher. Size: 8vo. Collectible.
Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Renowned theorist Anselm Jappe explains how contemporary capitalism has turned everyone into a narcissist. Liberals smirk at Trumps narcissism, but, as renowned theorist Anselm Jappe explains, contemporary capitalism has turned everyone into a narcissist. The Greek myth of Erysichthon describes the fate of a king whose hunger drove him to eat until the only thing left to devour was himself. This imageof a society spiralling inexorably in a self-destructive dynamicforms the starting point of Anselm Jappes investigation into the relationship between contemporary capitalism and subjectivity, or our personal experience of the world. In a work that unites the critique of political economy and the psychoanalytic tradition, Jappe explores the dynamics of contemporary capitalism and explains how internalizing them creates a specific kind of persona narcissist, someone who can only interact with the world by consuming it and who cannot conceive of limits to this consumption. In conversation with Marx as well as Freud, Erich Fromm, Herbert Marcuse, and Christopher Lasch, Jappe probes the ways in which the churning of the capitalist machine, ceaseless and yet devoid of real purpose, creates an endless hunger that increasingly ends in spectacular violence. Everyone can feel that the world is getting angrier. The Self-Devouring Society provides an original and rigorous explanation of why. Liberals smirk at Trump's narcissism, but, as renowned theorist Anselm Jappe explains, contemporary capitalism has turned everyone into a narcissist.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. This is the first and best intellectual biography of Guy Debord, prime mover of the Situationist International (19571972) and author of The Society of the Spectacle, perhaps the seminal book of the May 1968 uprising in France. Anselm Jappe offers a powerful corrective to the continual attempts to incorporate Debord's theoretical work into "French theory." Jappe's focus, to the contrary, is on Debord's debt to the Hegelian-Marxist tradition, to Karl Korsch and Georg Lukcs, and more generally to left-Marxist currents of council communism. His close reading of Debord's magnum opus supplies a superb gloss that has never been rivaled despite the great flood of writing on the Situationists in recent decades.At the same time, Debord is placed squarely in context among the Letterist and Situationist anti-artists who, in the aftermath of World War II, sought to criticize and transcend the legacy of Dada and Surrealism. Jappe's book offers a lively account of the Situationists' theory and practice as this "last avant-garde" made its way from radical bohemianism to revolutionary theory and action. Guy Debord has been translated into many languages. This PM Press reprint edition benefits from a new author's preface and a bibliographical update.

Rustica (tapa blanda). Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: Nuevo. 01. En la senda de la crítica del valor surgida en torno a Robert Kurz y los grupos Krisis y Exit!-, Anselm Jappe niega que estemos ante una crisis pasajera más en la historia del capitalismo, o hacia un nuevo modelo de acumulación, sino más bien ante un síntoma de que la dinámica del capitalismo se topa con su límite interno y estaría entrando en una fase de lenta descomposición. Anselm Jappe pone de manifiesto que la financiarización de la economía no habría sido sólo el producto de la ideología neoliberal o de una élite de malvados especuladores que parasitan la llamada economía real , sino el proceso que ha permitido compensar las crecientes dificultades que afectan a la valorización del capital desde los años setenta. Agotamiento del trabajo, crisis ecológica y agotamiento de los recursos, crisis energética, crisis de la forma y de la constitución psíquica del sujeto capitalista: hoy la cuestión ya no es tanto cómo derribar un sistema aparentemente fortísimo, la cuestión es cómo crear nuevas formas de cooperación social, de relación con la naturaleza, pero también nuevas formas de vida individual, de imaginación, de pensamiento, que permitan construir alternativas a un proceso de derrumbamiento que ya está ganando terreno. Romper con el capitalismo exige romper con su marco categorial, y esto implica romper con las formas sociales dentro de las cuales se mueve nuestra existencia: valor, trabajo asalariado, dinero, producción y consumo de mercancías. El libro recoge las intervenciones integrales y el debate del 11 de abril 2015 en Enclave: Jordi Maiso: Desilusiones necesarias; José Manuel Rojo: De la economía crítica a la crítica de la economía; Anselm Jappe: Reforestar la imaginación. Seguidos del texto de Anselm Jappe: Libres para la liberación? LIBRO.
