Phenomenal waste has surfaced as the social form and substance of value. In capital’s totalizing process, which commodifies all that comes in its way, wasting classes consume the wasted classes. This book addresses the metamorphosis of value into waste and it focuses on wars as industries of perfect waste. Whereas wasted man is visibly the prevalent commodity on sale, this central element in the commodity relation is rarely mentioned. In line with this, the book examines how waste, as a surrogate value, eludes the crises of capital and maintains its resilience.
Ali Kadri teaches at Sun Yatsen university. His recent books include The Cordon Sanitaire: A Single Law Governing Development in East Asia and the Arab World, Imperialism with Reference to Syria, and The Unmaking of Arab Socialism.
