Fredric Jameson's pathbreaking essay "An American Utopia" radically
questions standard leftist notions of what constitutes an
emancipated society. Advocated here are-among other
things-universal conscription, the full acknowledgment of envy and
resentment as a fundamental challenge to any communist society, and
the acceptance that the division between work and leisure cannot be
overcome. To create a new world, we must first change the way we
envision the world. Jameson's text is ideally placed to trigger a
debate on the alternatives to global capitalism. In addition to
Jameson's essay, the volume includes responses from philosophers
and political and cultural analysts, as well as an epilogue from
Jameson himself. Many will be appalled at what they will encounter
in these pages-there will be blood! But perhaps one has to spill
such (ideological) blood to give the Left a chance.
