Framed by brilliant readings of Gilles Deleuze and FÉlix Guattari, Gabriel Tarde, and Mikhail Bakhtin, Maurizio Lazzarato’s Revolutions of Capitalism charts a new theory of contemporary capitalism and the politics against it. Originally published in French in 2004, this newly translated work sees capitalism as driven, not only by labor or value, but by the capture of cooperation and by the taming of possibles. Lazzarato theorizes how contemporary capitalism depends on noo-politics, or the “action of brains at a distance on other brains,” which seeks to control memory and attention and to trap the proliferation of possibles. Against this, Lazzarato reveals how current social movements attack established institutions and their vision of a single possible world to liberate the creation and actualization of a multiplicity of possible worlds.

“Drawing creatively on heterodox traditions of Italian Marxism, the schizoanalysis of Deleuze-Guattari, the literary theory of Mikhail Bakhtin and the sociology of Gabriel Tarde, this book is an important and original contribution to the social and philosophical critique of contemporary capitalism and the delineation of post- and anti-capitalist futures.”—Alberto Toscano, author of, Communism in Philosophy: Essays on Alain Badiou and Toni Negri“Unfailingly original and provocative, Lazzarato provides in this book an insightful analysis of contemporary capitalist society and its modes of control that is engaged deeply with both philosophical problematics and activist agendas.”—Michael Hardt, author of, The Subversive Seventies
