“Carson blazes a path with a crucial, rigorous analysis that combines social reproduction theory with the capital-logic approach, proving rather than showing the contradiction between capital and life.” ——Marina Vishmidt, Goldsmiths, University of London “Carson's work is an original, and scholarly, investigation of the relation between social reproduction and capital's reproduction of itself.” ——Christopher J. Arthur, author of The Spector of Capital “Carson combines erudition and insight, conceptual sophistication and bold engagement, to offer an understanding of the new capitalist logic where the violent clash of extremes : the “life” of financial accumulation and the “life” of bodily reproduction, is pushed to its limits. Her theory will be passionately discussed, for the greatest benefit of scholars and activists.” ——Etienne Balibar, Kingston University, London
