Bataille's wars : surrealism, Marxism, fascism. 330 $b'Hutnyk packs more dynamite in his sentences than any other writer I know.' Amitava Kumar, Penn State University Cultural Studies commonly claims to be a radical discipline. This book thinks that's a bad assessment. Cultural theorists love to toy with Marx, but critical thinking seems to fall into obvious traps. After an introduction which explains why the 'Marxism' of the academy is unrecognisable and largely unrecognised in anti-capitalist struggles, Bad Marxism provides detailed analyses of Cultural Studies' cherished moves by holding fieldwork, archives, empires, hybrids and exchange up against the practical criticism of anti-capitalism. Engaging with the work of key thinkers: Jacques Derrida, James Clifford, Gayatri Spivak, Georges Bataille, Homi Bhabha, Michael Hardt and Toni Negri, Hutnyk concludes by advocating an open Marxism that is both pro-party and pro-critique, while being neither dogmatic, nor dull. 606 $aCommunism and social sciences 606 $aSocial sciences$xPhilosophy 606 $aSocialism and culture 606 $aCommunism and culture 606 $aCapitalism 606 $aCulture$xStudy and teaching 615 0$aCommunism and social sciences. 615 0$aSocial sciences$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aSocialism and culture. 615 0$aCommunism and culture. 615 0$aCapitalism. 615 0$aCulture$xStudy and teaching. 676 $a306/.01 700 $aHutnyk$b John$f1961-$01472206 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910782007903321 996 $aBad Marxism$93684919 997 $aUNINA
