the Occupy development with regards to Marcuse's amazing reasonable mechanical assembly.

The Great Refusal additionally diagrams contemporary social developments against an Earth-wide temperature
boost, mass imprisonment, police severity, racial oppression, militarization, mechanical improvement, and that's
only the tip of the iceberg, to give experiences that advance our comprehension of obstruction today.
