Peter Fleming

[kaserine]

"Sa venue parmi nous permit à Peter d'utiliser à sa guise le plus important moment de sa journée:il put fumer sa première pipe en paix après le déjeuner, cette pipe dont le bois, pour l'étonnement perpétuel des Mongols, ne se consumait pas.Eux ne connaissaient que la pipe de laiton , que l'on bourre avec le tabac de son voisin: Peter, tout en se prêtant à cette coutume polie, ne voyait pas sans appréhension baisser sa provision de gros "Edgeworth".

Ella Maillart , Oasis Interdites, p156.

Ella Maillart and Peter Fleming, 1931

That awful apartment told me something. Neoliberal capitalism had probably run its course, spawning progeny it could no longer protect itself from. The constellation of possibilities that once flourished in cities like London had vanished. There were no antibodies left. Capitalism was undoing itself at nearly every turn. A kind of neo-Feudalism was on the march. Perhaps we were witnessing the birth of post-capitalism after all, not a clean and better alternative to the system, but (rather paradoxically) a much worse version of it, one that will make the “Trump Years” look like a tiptoe through the tulips.

My theory is this. Most advanced industrial societies have actually outlived the principles of capitalism and are busy transitioning into something else. It is still too early to say what that “something else” might be. But we do know the break won’t be clean. So the post-capitalist future we should prepare for will be no classless utopia. The worst features of capitalism will be amplified and applied reductio ad absurdum, coalescing around the return of preindustrial norms of authority and an incredible polarisation of wealth.

Donald Trump, Brexit, the impending environmental eco-blitz (or what NASA calls a “Type-L” collapse given the role played by elites) and the prospect of another Radiohead album give the appearance that things couldn’t possibly get worse. And yet, I disagree. They probably will.
