The Communist Postscript
£12.99 Add to basket
A provocative essay on the relationship between communism, philosophy and language.
The contemporary world, argues Boris Groys, was made possible by the downfall of historical communism. At the same time, today’s political and aesthetic strategies — from a unified Europe to political Islam and contemporary mass culture — all bear the imprint of communist heritage.
Groys claims that the end of Soviet communism sets this dream free for new attempts to organize society through language, the medium of equality.
