  Book Description
 
Publication Date: March 28, 2014
  In this major, paradigm-shifting work, Kojin
Karatani systematically re-reads Marx's version of world history, shifting the focus of critique from modes of
production to modes of exchange. Karatani seeks to understand both Capital-Nation-State, the interlocking system that is
the dominant form of modern global society, and the possibilities for superseding it. In The Structure of World History,
he traces different modes of exchange, including the pooling of resources that characterizes nomadic tribes, the gift
exchange systems developed after the adoption of fixed-settlement agriculture, the exchange of obedience for protection
that arises with the emergence of the state, the commodity exchanges that characterize capitalism, and, finally, a
future mode of exchange based on the return of gift exchange, albeit modified for the contemporary moment. He argues
that this final stage—marking the overcoming of capital, nation, and state—is best understood in light of
Kant's writings on eternal peace. The Structure of World History is in many ways the capstone of Karatani's brilliant
career, yet it also signals new directions in his thought.
  
  Reviews
  "Kojin Karatani's monumental and provocative synthesis testifies to a
dramatic rebirth of universal history in recent times; but it does so by reuniting traditions—economics,
politics, the social imaginary—which have proved increasingly sterile developed separately. His proposal involves
a Borromean knot in which the three distinct areas of Capital, the Nation, and the State are both distinguished from
each other and structurally recombined in their historical moments. His rereading of the Marxian modes of production
(Marx's theory of universal history) in terms of modes of exchange is heretical and revisionist, but also profoundly
critical of both the anarchism and the social democracy it would seem to express. His discussion of nation and world
empire replaces any number of globalization debates within a transformative or revolutionary framework. His luminous
study of Marx's own work and politics then casts a whole new light on Hegel and Kant; and indeed the history of
philosophy is as much at stake here as the histories of nationalism or anticapitalist movements. Finally, Karatani's own
practical and theoretical experience of the cooperative moment opens up political perspectives which will be politically
suggestive and energizing at a moment when left politics seems universally out of breath."(Fredric Jameson, author of Postmodernism, or, The Cultural Logic of Late Capitalism)
  
  "Kojin Karatani is one of the most creative and important thinkers of the early twenty-first century."(David Graeber, author of The Democracy Project: A History, a Crisis, a Movement)
 

  "Kojin Karatani's last great work, Transcritique: On Kant and Marx, set off a chain of theoretical explosions,
Slavoj Žižek’s The Parallax View not least among them. This latest book returns to the Borromean knot of
Capital-Nation-State from a rotated perspective; privileging modes of exchange over modes of production, it is a
revolutionary rethinking of the historical emergence of that triadic structure and its various transformations. The
'Karatani-turn' will no doubt re-start serious debate about the form and future of capitalism."(Joan Copjec, author of Imagine There's No Woman: Ethics and Sublimation)
