Here, Lazzarato criticises Foucault's pioneering thoughts on this for not rooting the discussion in debt. To really simplify the argument, Papa Lazz suggests that the assumption of debt by someone inculcates a certain kind of thrifty entrepreneurship. Therefore our entrepreneurship is less a choice and more an obligation.Philhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06298147857234479278noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4486641877026778105.post-33532982544841396552019-08-21T11:08:34.424+01:002019-08-21T11:08:34.424+01:00These really are just jottings - you've covere...These really are just jottings - you've covered an awful lot here, using, at times, fairly technical language that needs a bit of unpacking (for those who have not well versed in this particular canon)<br /><br />For instance, what do you mean by 'entrepreneurship' in this context?PlebJamesnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4486641877026778105.post-12845730544170646702019-08-21T10:11:07.193+01:002019-08-21T10:11:07.193+01:00Debt is, above all, a political construction.

Thank you Phil. <br /><br />I particularly look forward to tying Lazzarato's analysis of economics and cash-flow with his socio-economic modelling, which will certainly fasten the 'many', the 'few' and the economic principles to the mess we are currently living through as late capitalsim struggles for dear life.<br /><br />I look forward to more Lazzarato from you soon.qwertboinoreply@blogger.com
