NOW, “the stimulating anticapitalist polemic by anonymous French collective Invisible Committee, follows up on the group’s prescient 2007 The Coming Insurrection—which gained mainstream notoriety as a hotly contested tract of the radical left—as well as that work’s 2014 sequel, To Our Friends. Referencing recent global crises and drawing on key strands in continental political theory, it argues that civilization is in a process of fragmentation in which the legitimacy of both the state and the historic left have been irreparably eroded, and a profoundly alienated populace is ‘fleeing’ the system in unexpected ways.”*.This weekend, Public School Los Angeles presents a public conversation around the issues raised in the book..THE INVISIBLE COMMITTEE—NOW, Sunday, March 4, at 2 pm..PUBLIC SCHOOL, 951 Chung King Road, Chinatown, Los Angeles...The Invisible Committee, NOW, trans. from the French by Robert Hurley (South Pasadena, CA: Semiotext(e), 2017)..
