Contemporary culture, todays capitalism - our global information society - is ever-expanding-- is ever more extensive. And yet we seem to be experiencing a parallel phenomenon which can only be characterized as intensive.
This book is dedicated to the study of such intensive culture. While extensive culture is a culture of the same: a culture of fixed equivalence; intensive culture is a culture of difference, of in-equivalence – the singular. Intensities generate what we encounter. They are virtuals or possibilities, always in process and always in movement.
Lash carefully defines and distinguishes the intensive from the extensive tracking this change through key areas of social life including:
- Sociology
- Religion
- Philosophy
- Language
- Politics
- Communication
