Exit Capitalism explores a new path for cultural studies and
re-examines key moments of British cultural and literary history.
Simon During argues that the long and liberating journey towards
democratic state capitalism has led to an unhappy dead-end from
which there is no imaginable exit.
In this context, what do the humanities look like? What's alive
and what's dead in the culture and its heritage?
It becomes clear that the contemporary world order remains
imperfect not just because it is unjust but because it cannot meet
ethical standards produced in a past that still knew genuine hope.
Simon During emphasises the need to rethink the position of
Christianity and religion in the past, and at a more concrete
level, also analyses how the decline of the socialist ideal and the
emergence of endgame capitalism helped to produce both modern
theory and cultural studies as academic fields.
