  • The Digital Metaphysics of Cognitive Capitalism

    Teresa L Ebert, Masʹud Zavarzadeh et al.ARTICLEInternational Critical Thought2014Cited by: 1References: 6

    In North Atlantic left theory, the law of value “dies” because the dialectics of labor time and value, which is the ground of Marx's labor theory of value, is assumed to have lost its explanatory power in cognitive capitalism in which the time of labor is close to zero, and labor, therefore, is seen as having no central role in producing value. Value becomes immeasurable and exploitation is displaced by expropriation. These assumptions are based …

  • Pun(k)deconstruction and the Postmodern Political Imaginary

    Masʹud Zavarzadeh, Mas'Ud ZavarzadehARTICLECultural Critique1992Cited by: 1

    C lassic (post)structuralism-as in the writings of Foucault, Lacan, Lyotard, and the early texts of Derrida-lost its intellectual effectivity in the mid-1970s since it could no longer explain (away) the social contradictions of late capitalism and its own complicity in these contradictions. Since then, newer, more conservative theoretical inquiries have emerged to contain the critique of capitalism and consequently have come to occupy center stag…

    Mas''Ud Zavarzadeh, Masʹud Zavarzadeh et al.ARTICLEPoetics Today1985

Although these fictions partake in a variety of literary codes constitutive of narrative genres and their forms of intelligiblity, participation, in Derrida's words, never amounts to belonging (1980:212). The n…
