Late Capitalism

string
Book •
Fredric Jameson's 'Late Capitalism' explores the cultural and economic shifts associated with the transition to a globalized, post-industrial society.

The book examines how capitalism adapts and mutates in its later stages, influencing various aspects of culture, politics, and everyday life.

Jameson analyzes the rise of consumerism, the commodification of culture, and the fragmentation of social experiences.

He introduces concepts such as 'cognitive mapping' to understand our place within the complex systems of late capitalism.

The work provides critical insights into the ways in which economic structures shape our perceptions, behaviors, and social interactions.
