Bol Mark Fisher After 1989, capitalism has presented itself as the only realistic political economic system. What effects has this "capitalist realism" had on work, culture, education and mental health? Is it possible to imagine an alternative to capitalism that is not some throwback to discredited models of state control? "Let's not beat around the bush: Fisher's compulsively readable book is simply the best diagnosis of our predicament that we have! Through examples from daily life and popular culture, but without sacrificing theoretical stringency, he provides a ruthless portrait of our ideological misery. Capitalist Realism is a sobering call for patient theoretical and political work." Slavoj ¿i¿ek "Mark Fisher is a master cultural diagnostician, and in Capitalist Realism he surveys the symptoms of our current cultural malaise. ... This book offers a brilliant analysis of the pervasive cynicism in which we seem to be mired, and even holds out the prospect of an antidote." Steven Shaviro "The beauty of Mark Fisher's laser-sharp critique of the destructive effects of life under neoliberalism was that it spoke to ordinary people in plain language that went beyond the often hermetic intellectual world of Academia. He is greatly missed. We need voices like Mark's more than ever." Bobby Gillespie | Primal Scream "The best guide to British politics today." The Economist
