Capitalist Realism: Is There No Alternative?
by Mark Fisher
informative
medium-paced
Fine piece of theory, reasonably accessible. Read the first chapter and you’ll be fine.
There’s some real pernicious desires for a patriarch, reifying the nuclear family, scarcity logics, and a huge focus on academia in Britain that may or may not be useful. Also, I personally think there’s not a lot of hope here, and it ends with a sigh.
This is what people reference when they say “It’s easier to imagine the end of the world than the end of capitalism.” and putting that quote in greater context isn’t necessary.
