A thought provoking and intriguing read which reasserts class relations in the modern epoch as one between “Debtor” and “Creditor.” These relations the author claims then create a system of securitization of debt which collapse the present and future into itself. This thereby makes the prospect of change or upheaval impossible without a fundamental re-evaluation of a financial system which transcends state borders.

Although never quite convinced at the notion of Left Nietzscheanism this book nonetheless provided an interesting framework for both understanding debt crises and delineating the neoliberal era. Specifically the author’s use of “antiproduction” from Anti-Oedipus is a helpful lens to view the neoliberal model as well as explain why capitalism in its decadence has become a reactionary force of history instead of a progressive one.

Will be recommending this read.
