“A fascinating short book” on the perils of 21st-century capitalism and its near-complete takeover of our everyday lives (New York Times Magazine)
24/7: Late Capitalism and the Ends of Sleep explores some of the ruinous consequences of the expanding non-stop processes of twenty-first-century capitalism. The marketplace now operates through every hour of the clock, pushing us into constant activity and eroding forms of community and political expression, damaging the fabric of everyday life.
Jonathan Crary examines how this interminable non-time blurs any separation between an intensified, ubiquitous consumerism and emerging strategies of control and surveillance. He describes the ongoing management of individual attentiveness and the impairment of perception within the compulsory routines of contemporary technological culture. At the same time, he shows that human sleep, as a restorative withdrawal that is intrinsically incompatible with 24/7 capitalism, points to other more formidable and collective refusals of world-destroying patterns of growth and accumulation.
Informazioni sull?autore: Jonathan Crary is Meyer Schapiro Professor of Modern Art and Theory at Columbia University. His books include Techniques of the Observer and Suspensions of Perception.

No Aplica (illustratore). 0. ?A polemic as finely concentrated as a line of pure cocaine.? ?Los Angeles Review of Books. ?A humane & bracingly splenetic counterblast.? ?Steven Poole, New Statesman. ?24/7 is the capstone of Crary?s archeology of the spectacle and arguably the most significant of the lot. It?s informed by the erudition of one of the most thorough and original researchers on the planet. The vast bodies of knowledge Crary seamlessly weaves together in 24/7 is reminiscent of the work of Michel Foucault ?[and] marked by a moral passion that fuels Crary?s polemic and underscores what?s at stake, specifically the future of the human being in both the physical and emotional sense. Plus, it?s eminently readable.? ?PopMatters 120 gr. Libro. Codice articolo 9781781683101LEA125913
