Recenzii
Randy Martin well understands that finance capital flattens and gouges at the same time. This book is the anti-Thomas Friedman. Neil Smith, author of The Endgame of GlobalizationWhile a great deal has been written about globalization, empire and international finance, I know of no other work that looks at their intersection through the rhetorical and conceptual lens of finance. An Empire of Indifference is a strong piece of original scholarship ona a very important topic. Chris Hables Gray, author of Peace, War and ComputersAn Empire of Indifference is a brilliant study, both theoretically profound and politically compelling. Michael J. Shapiro, author of Methods and Nations: Cultural Governance and the Indigenous SubjectAn Empire of Indifference is the perfect answer to Thomas Friedmans The World Is Flat. Randy Martin well understands that finance capital flattens and gouges at the same time. This book is the anti-Friedman.Neil Smith, author of The Endgame of Globalization"We feel this is a book that will appeal to academic specialists...as well as radicals with a deep seated knowledge of social antagonism wishing to enhance their take on financialisation and securitisation". Mute Magazine, 21ST October 2008

"While a great deal has been written about globalization, empire, and international finance, I know of no other work besides this one that looks at their intersection through the rhetorical and conceptual lens of finance. "An Empire of Indifference" is a strong piece of original scholarship on a very important topic."--Chris Hables Gray, author of "Peace, War, and Computers"
