«El posmodernismo o la lógica cultural del capitalismo avanzado» is Fredric Jameson's essay, published by Ediciones Paidós in paperback (128 pages).
Jameson analyses postmodernism as the dominant cultural logic of advanced capitalism. With Andy Warhol, John Cage, the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, punk, new wave or Godard as references, he asks whether they represent a break or merely a change of style, and proposes understanding them as a hegemonic norm to rethink a radical cultural politics.
