#Accelerate: The Accelerationist Reader

by Armen Avanessian and Robin Mackay

Book Overview

An apparently contradictory yet radically urgent collection of texts tracing the genealogy of a controversial current in contemporary philosophy.

Accelerationism is the name of a contemporary political heresy: the insistence that the only radical political response to capitalism is not to protest, disrupt, critique, or d tourne it, but to accelerate and exacerbate its uprooting, alienating, decoding, abstractive tendencies.
