In this uncompromising essay, Jonathan Crary presents the obvious but unsayable reality: our "digital age" is synonymous with the disastrous terminal stage of global capitalism and its financialization of social existence, mass impoverishment, ecocide, and military terror. Scorched Earth surveys the wrecking of a living world by the internet complex and its devastation of communities and their capacities for mutual support.

Astonishing book: a scorched earth critique of how corporations are laying waste to the human life world
Revisado: 06-06-24
This is a penetrating critique of the contemporary world — especially focused on internet capitalism — by one of the most formidable intelligences of our times, Jonathan Crary, the Meyer Schapiro Professor of Art History at Columbia University. What’s astonishing about Crary is his combination of distinct modes of erudition — his command of both the history of philosophy and innumerable sciences — with a searing humanist passion. I cannot recommend it more highly.
