Reviews

Deeply original, Declarations of Dependence makes a vital contribution to cultural studies and cultural and aesthetic theory. . . . Indeed, it is so rich in suggestions that it could inspire an entire series of Modern Monetary Theory-guided inquiries into various areas of modern culture. -Steven Shaviro, Deroy Professor of English at Wayne State University -- Steven Shaviro A bold polemic on behalf of collective flourishing, Declarations of Dependence challenges readers to demand more from social relations and to demand more from aesthetic pleasures and should be required reading for literary and cultural theorists, political economists, care workers, and policymakers of all stripes. -Anna Kornbluh, associate professor of English at the University of Illinois, Chicago -- Anna Kornbluh Declarations of Dependence is humanities scholarship at its best: incisively written, it uses a new approach to a core philosophical and political question-what is money?-in the service of developing truly surprising and revealing interpretations of works ranging from medieval scholastic philosophy to Star Wars. -David Golumbia, associate professor of digital studies in the Department of English at Virginia Commonwealth University -- David Golumbia
