New Times connected postmodern themes to advanced capitalist economy debates

Evidence

HALL: New Times is the name of an intervention which a number of people made in the journal Marxism Today in a series of essays, partly on economic questions, partly on cultural questions. It could be read as an intersection between a radical political project and a selective number of themes in postmodernism. It takes on certain debates about the nature of the advanced capitalist economy, and about the nature and effect of globalization on that. More than that, it metaphorically renders the enormous breaks and caesuras going on around us in the political life of the world. — Hall, Stuart, Essential Essays, Volume 1, 261
