The task of today's thought is thus double: on the one hand, how to repeat the Marxist critique of political economy without the uto- pian/ideological notion of Com- munism as its inherent standard; on the other hand, how to imagine ef- fectively breaking out of the capital- ist horizon without falling into the trap of returning to the eminently premodern notion of a balanced, (self-)restrained society (the pre- Cartesian
temptation
to which most of today's ecology succumbs).
