Class Wargames : Ludic Subversion Against Spectacular Capitalism

By Richard Barbrook

Why should radicals be interested in playing wargames? Surely the Left can have no interest in such militarist fantasies? Yet Guy Debord placed such importance on his invention of The Game of War that he described it as the most significant of his accomplishments. Fusing together historical research on avant-garde artists, political revolutionaries and military theorists, with narratives of five years of public performances, Class Wargames provides a strategic and tactical manual for subverting the economic, political and ideological hierarchies of neoliberal capitalism.
