The eighteen original essays in this collection, woven together,
make a central claim: as a consequence of the new driving logics of
globalization, transnationalism, and the digital age, all
late-modern institutions and forms of association and affiliation
are coalescing under the banner of new identities. These logics
have unsettled the processes of the social integration of modern
subjects into late-modern institutions. The modern subject is being
remade and reproduced in a context in which the relations between
government, society, the individual, and market forces have
undergone profound transformations and reorganization. As such,
critical/cultural theory is needed to address these transformations
in a way that moves beyond dystopian or utopian frameworks, and
instead point to the particularities that make this moment
(un)livable. Hence, this book is divided into four sections in
which contributors map these new, volatile developments across the
domains of disciplinary history, technology, the body, and
neoliberal programs of cultural and economic globalization.
