Subject: M-I: Postmodernization of Virtual Marxism


The list suspensions have clearly backfired. Since the suspensions, this
list has become even more *self-referential*; in other words, the list has
more to say about itself than marxism, working class, etc. This sort of
self-contained and self-referential verbal performance, I learned in my
graduate seminars, is a hallmark of postmodern culture. It is ironic that
the one thing all the subscribers seem to be able to agree on is our shared
dislike of the cultural hegemony of post-modernism. Have we become part of
the problem?
