<p>This week <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="https://www.minorcompositions.info/?p=1661">CERFI:
Analysis Everywhere</a> comes to London for three events – three
different settings for thinking about what it might mean to take
analysis outside the clinic and into institutions, architecture,
research, organising and collective life. Our strongest
recommendation: <a moz-do-not-send="true"

18 September at Freedom Books</a>. Susana Caló and Godofredo
Enes Pereira will be there to discuss the book and CERFI’s
experiments with militant research, institutional analysis,
collective organisation and publishing. It’s free, it’s Friday
night, and it’s at Freedom. Come along. <br>

Three nights. Three different milieus. Analysis everywhere,
apparently.</p>

<p><b>Abolishing Capitalist Totality</b><br>
Mattin and Anthony Iles in conversation with Dimitra Kotouza and
Ray Brassier<br>
September 15th @ 7PM UK Time, <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="https://essex-university.zoom.us/j/91834950700">online</a><br>
<br>
What does it mean to describe capitalism as a totality? If capital
appears to have absorbed ever more of social life, shaping not
only work but subjectivity, technology, culture and everyday
existence, how do we avoid turning this diagnosis into a story in
which capitalism has become so complete that meaningful antagonism
appears impossible?<br>
<br>
Abolishing Capitalist Totality: What Is to Be Done Under Real
Subsumption?, edited by Anthony Iles and Mattin, brings together
more than a decade of arguments around subsumption, communisation,
abolition and the limits of capitalist power. Beginning from a
workshop convened in Bilbao in 2014, the project asks how Marx's
concept of subsumption might help us understand the concrete
processes through which capital reorganises social life, while
resisting fatalistic accounts of capitalism as an all-encompassing
system without an outside.<br>
<br>
For this online conversation, Mattin and Anthony Iles are joined
by contributors Dimitra Kotouza and Ray Brassier to revisit these
questions in the present. What does the language of totality
illuminate, and what might it obscure? What remains irreducible to
capital's abstractions? How might different understandings of
subsumption change what we think abolition requires? And if
capitalist totality is not a seamless whole but a contradictory
ensemble of processes, relations and struggles, what possibilities
does that open for acting within, against and beyond it?<br>
