Whatever Happened to…? Brief Considerations on Cognitive Capitalism and the Capitalist Mode of Production of the XXI Century
Abstract
In these lines we tackle the contributions of cognitive capitalism, a stream of thought dedicated to analyze the transformations that Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) have inflicted on the capitalism mode of production. Its specifies and theoretical shortcomings will be enlightened with the help of G. Caffentzis’s considerations on these contributions. As a result of the preceding account, we will briefly explain some of the relevant aspects to consider within a fruitful analysis of contemporary capitalism.
