Jodi Dean (Professor of Political Science, Hobart and William Smith Colleges) is the author of numerous books, including Democracy Other Neoliberal Fantasies: Communicative Capitalism and Left Politics (Duke 2009). Her talk is entitled "Communicative capitalism: this is what democracy looks like." Dean’s talk draws from work she’s done in new media and politics over the last decade and a half. She agrees with those who emphasize the democratic potential of participation in communicative networks, but argues that democracy has merged with capitalism such that the communicative acts we engage in reinforce the hold of capitalism. The result is, so Dean, that democracy is inadequate as a language or deal for egalitarian, emancipatory politics.
