Contemporary capitalism is in effect, if not in intent, Deleuzian. As a network of networks, it is rhizomatic, flexible, chaosmotic, evolving, expanding. In the negativist spirit that characterizes the work of the Frankfurt School, this article shows via an analysis of the government of the self, the commodification of culture and the modification of nature, how contemporary capitalism does colonize not only the life-world but also life itself.
