| Federici’s
work, in general terms, establishes that capitalism and modernity are
inseparable:
Capitalism was the counter-revolution that destroyed the
possibilities that had emerged in the anti-feudal struggle […]
We must emphasize this aspect, for the belief that capitalism “evolved” from feudalism and that it represents a higher form
of life society has not yet come undone (Federici, 2016, p. 44).
| Yet while for Federici capitalism and modernity form a reactionary
double-bind attacking communes and collective ways of life, other
macropolitical visions would beg to differ. Capitalism emerges as the
great way out, perhaps the only one, for what became known as
accelerationism[6], more specifically to one of the protagonists of this
article: Nick Land.
