In Speculation as a Mode of Production: Forms of Value Subjectivity
in Art and Capital, Marina Vishmidt offers a new perspective on one
of the main categories of capitalist life in the historical
present. Writing not under the shadow but in the spirit of Adorno's
negative dialectic, her work pursues speculation through its
contested terrains of philosophy, finance, and art, to arrive at
the most detailed analysis that we now possess of the role of
speculation in the shaping of subjectivity by value relations.
Featuring detailed critical discussions of recent tendencies in the
artistic representation of labour, and a brilliant reconstruction
of the philosophical concept of the speculative from its origins in
German Romanticism, Speculation as a Mode of Production is an
essential, widescreen theorisation of capital's drive to
self-expansion, and an urgent corrective to the narrow and
one-sided periodisations to which it is most commonly subjected.
