Abstract

After discussing the intellectual history of post-Marxism, the paper offers a synopsis of my PhD thesis which stages a number of confrontations between the literary narratives of Jonathan Lethem, China Miéville, Thomas Pynchon, David Peace, Kim Stanley Robinson and Dana Spiotta, and the theoretical positions of Ernesto Laclau & Chantal Mouffe, Slavoj Žižek, Alain Badiou, Michael Hardt and Antonio Negri.
