An uproarious portrait of the evils of the market and a technical manual for its innermost ideological workings, this is the story of how the perverted legacy of liberalism sought to knead Marx's "free peasant" into a statistical "average man" pliant raw material for the sausage-machine of postmodernity. Combining the incandescent wrath of the betrayed comrade with the acute discrimination of the mathematician-physicist, Châtelet scrutinizes the pseudoscientific alibis employed to naturalize "market democracy" and the "triple alliance" between politics, economics, and cybernetics. A bestseller in France on its publication in 1998, this book remains crucial reading for any future politics that wants to replace individualism with individuation and libertarianism with liberation, this new translation constitutes a major contribution to contemporary debate on neoliberalism, economics, and capitalist subjectivation.

Zoltán Kertész, blauäugiger Sohn eines »Halbzigeuners« und einer Tagelöhnerin mit ständig wechselnden Liebhabern, ist der Außenseiter in einem kleinen Ort in Serbien. Als Kind ist er dem Vater in voller Fahrt vom Motorrad gefallen, und der Bäcker, dem er die Mehlsäcke nicht schnell genug durch die Backstube schleppte, hat ihm den Kopf blutig geschlagen. Seither hat er das »Schläfenflattern«, sitzt am liebsten in seiner Scheune und löst Kreuzworträtsel. Als 1991 der jugoslawische Bürgerkrieg ausbricht, sehen das die Eltern als Chance für den Sohn: In der Volksarmee soll der »Taugenichts«, der »Idiot« zuerst zum Mann und dann zum Helden werden. Aber Zoltán passt auch dort nicht ins System, stellt die falschen Fragen und die auch noch stotternd. Als sein einziger Freund bei einem Trainingsmarsch in der Folge sinnloser Schleiferei tot zusammenbricht, verweigert sich Zoltán endgültig einer Ordnung, die alle Macht dem Stärkeren zugesteht.

In this scholarly yet intensely personal history, author Edina Becirevic explores the widespread ethnic cleansing that occurred in Bosnia and Herzegovina from 1992 through 1995, war crimes and crimes against humanity committed by Serbs against Bosnian Muslims that fully meet the criteria for genocide established after World War II by the Genocide Convention of 1948. An in-depth study of the devastating and dehumanizing effects of genocide on individual destinies and the mechanisms of its denial in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Becirevic's essential history contextualizes the East Bosnian program of atrocities with respect to broader scholarly debates about the nature of genocide.
