The 2008 global crisis, unemployment, lack of retirement funds, bank bailouts ... today, the "economy" is on everyone's mind. But what makes this somewhat opaque concept work? This collection of essays seeks out the answer by exploring contemporary capitalism from a variety of theoretical perspectives and by confronting the economy as a cultural system, a theory, and a driving force of everyday life in the West. The book's first part discusses past and present representations of capitalism (from Hegel and Marx to Negri and Florida) along with their continuing impact. The second part focuses on capitalism as a locus of power and resistance and maps possible responses to the current situation. The roles of metaphor and discourse are examined throughout to rethink the implications of power in the context of globalization and consumer culture.
