The Politics of Culture in the Shadow of Capital
Eighteen contributed essays examine how localized and resistant social practices--including anticolonial and feminist struggles, peasant revolts, and various cultural movements--challenge contemporary capitalism. These essays--on Asia, Latin America, the Caribbean, North America, and Europe--rework Marxist critique and advance a new understanding of "cultural politics" within the context of transnational neocolonial capitalism.
