This volume is the result of a collective reflection developed in the
UniNomade network in the months immediately following the first signals of
the current financial and economic crisis. The contributions of Chicchi, Di
Stefano, Fumagalli, Lucarelli, Marazzi, Paulrè, Roth, Terranova and
Vercellone constitute the first organic and interdisciplinary attempt to
analyze a crisis that is not merely financial in nature but which regards
globalization and neoliberal capitalism as we have know them until now. It
is a totally new kind of crisis different from the ones we have seen over
the last 25 years because it is a systemic crisis that goes beyond the
financial sector revealing the ineffectiveness of the extraordinary economic
measures that have been actuated over the past few months by single
nation-states. Thus it is a financial crisis that immediately effects the
so-called “real economy” and that demonstrates how financialization is
nothing other than one of the most recent and perverse articulations of
capitalist command. These contributions, of a high scientific and political
character, communicate the urgency of not only identifying new economic and
political categories able to interpret the contemporary forms of
capitalistic power but, above all, they stimulate us to elaborate radically
positive exit strategies from this crisis towards a new horizon of
constructing the common.
