Nonfiction. Political Science. Criticism and Theory. Art. "IMAGINAL
MACHINES explores with humor and wit the condition of art and
politics in contemporary capitalism. It reviews the potentials and
limits of liberatory art (from surrealism to Tom Waits) while
charting the always-resurgent creations of the collective
imagination. Shukaitis exhibits a remarkable theoretical breadth,
bringing together the work of Castoriadis, the Situationists, and
autonomous Marxism to define a new task for militant research:
constructing imaginal machines that escape capitalism. IMAGINAL
MACHINES is truly a book that makes a path by walking"--Silvia
Federici, author of CALIBAN AND THE WITCH: WOMEN, THE BODY, AND
PRIMITIVE ACCUMULATION.
