'Hutnyk packs more dynamite in his sentences than any other writer
I know.' Amitava Kumar, Penn State University Cultural Studies
commonly claims to be a radical discipline. This book thinks that's
a bad assessment. Cultural theorists love to toy with Marx, but
critical thinking seems to fall into obvious traps. After an
introduction which explains why the 'Marxism' of the academy is
unrecognisable and largely unrecognised in anti-capitalist
struggles, Bad Marxism provides detailed analyses of Cultural
Studies' cherished moves by holding fieldwork, archives, empires,
hybrids and exchange up against the practical criticism of
anti-capitalism. Engaging with the work of key thinkers: Jacques
Derrida, James Clifford, Gayatri Spivak, Georges Bataille, Homi
Bhabha, Michael Hardt and Toni Negri, Hutnyk concludes by
advocating an open Marxism that is both pro-party and pro-critique,
while being neither dogmatic, nor dull.
