From: "Steven Snell" <04048675-AT-brookes.ac.uk> Subject: multitude Date: Thu, 25 Nov 2004 09:50:48 -0000 All - Is the 'multitude' a tool for liberation from a political production of some sort of world view, or is it like the 'spectacle', something the political institutions create through their link to the notion of commodification? There is a lot of interesting discussion occurring (that I'm finally getting caught up on) but I think I'm missing some of the binary concepts in order to get my head order some of the more 'advanced' postulations... there is something in "If the multitude is defined as including all those who labour and produce under the rule of capital"... this sounds 'spectacle'-esque... what does it mean socially, politically, economically, culturally? Steve used the notion of communism, which to me provokes a lot of negative images with the aforementioned concepts. Steven.
