Sobre IBD

The World Turned Inside Out explores American thought and culture in the formative moment of the late twentieth century in the aftermath of the fabled Sixties. The overall argument here is that the tendencies and sensibilities we associate with that earlier moment of upheaval decisively shaped intellectual agendas and cultural practices in the 1980s and 90s.

  • Pragmatism and the Political Economy of Cultural Revolution, 1850-1940
    James Livingston
    The rise of corporate capitalism was a cultural revolution as well as an economic event, according to James Livingston. That revolution resides, he argues, in the fundamental reconstruction of selfhood, or subjectivity, that attends the advent of an ’age of surplus’ under corporate auspices. From this standpoint, consumer culture represents a transition to a society in which id...
