I'm starting to think there's a wierd moment
happening in politics. Critiques, whatever that
may mean, adopting a more or less shared idiom,
obscuring what are actually quite different
politics, and the debates between them.  Maybe
that's just my sense of it; but seems to me that
the bifurcation is along the lines of those who
'get' a critique of civil society, the Free Eden
of Labour and so on and those who just don't see
the relations between exchange/meritocracy,
exploitation and capital.  Maybe it's that the
university (and culture industries) still runs on
the whiff of an oily feudalism.
