In this book Wayne Hope analyzes the double relation between time
and global capitalism. In order to do this, he cross-relates four
epistemes of time - epochality, time reckoning, temporality and
coevalness - with four materializations of time - hegemony,
conflict, crisis and rupture. Using this framework allows Hope to
argue that global capitalism is epochally distinctive, riven by
time conflicts, prone to recurring crises, and vulnerable to
collective opposition. These critical insights are not easily
thematized in a mediated world of real-time reflexivity,
detemporalized presentism, and denials of coevalness associated
with structural exclusions of the poor. However, the worldwide
repercussions of the 2008 financial collapse and the resulting
confluence of occupation movements, riots, protests, strike
activity, and anti-austerity activism raises the prospect of a
rupture within and beyond global capitalism.
