The only thing I can think of is Society of the Spectacle by Guy Debord and Marshall McLuhan's work on media.
Oh, and this work by Christian Fuchs.
Problem being:
I think Fuchs is a Marxist-Humanist and I'm not sure what to think of Marxist humanism.
But I could be wrong.
Maybe I should ignore that aspect of their work.
Thoughts?
Got any book recommendations at all?
I'm looking for:
Media studies
Cultural theory
Communications
Internet
Social media
Management and organization
Community-building
Trends
Technology
etc.
^ These are the topics I'm looking into.
And, hopefully, from a Marxist-Leninist or Marxist standpoint (or at least leftist).
Got anything? Maybe advice?
Yea it's just weird that he walks it back and forth multiple times and the demand for an epistemological break is unnecessary. He's essentially trying to explain the confusions people have about Marx, but it's overcomplicated and impractical to actually pinpoint the exact epistemological point of inflection.
It's pretty much all explained in the essay on over determination anyways, the young Marx old Marx stuff is just like extra fluff essentially.
Eyyup.
