17:54Now PlayingThis is a continuation of our series on rethinking Critical Theory. In this video, we consider Russell Jacoby’s essay “The Declining Rate of Intelligence” in order to think through how capitalism’s development limits our ability to cope and think. This video takes excerpts from “What is Postmodern Conservatism?”, “Give Them an Argument: Logic for the Left?”, and Neglected or Misunderstood: Introducing Theodor Adorno.

Zero Books Manifesto:
The modern world is at an impasse. Disasters scroll across our smartphone screens and we’re invited to like, follow or upvote, but critical thinking is harder and harder to find. Rather than connecting us in common struggle and debate, the internet has sped up and deepened a long-standing process of alienation and atomization.
Zer0 Books wants to work against this trend.
