Despite insoluble contradictions, intense volatility and fierce
resistance, the crisis-ridden capitalism of the 21st century
lingers on. To understand capital's paradoxical expansion and
entrenchment amidst crisis and unrest, Mute Compulsionoffers a
novel theory of the historically unique forms of abstract and
impersonal power set in motion by the subjection of social life to
the profit imperative. Building on a critical reconstruction of
Karl Marx's unfinished critique of political economy and a wide
range of contemporary Marxist theory, philosopher Soren Mau sets
out to explain how the logic of capital tightens its stranglehold
on the life of society by constantly remoulding the material
conditions of social reproduction. In the course of doing so, Mau
intervenes in classical and contemporary debates about the value
form, crisis theory, biopolitics, social reproduction, humanism,
logistics, agriculture, metabolism, the body, competition,
technology and relative surplus populations.
