“Theories of the postmodern...bear a strong family resemblance to all those more ambitious sociological generalizations which...bring us the news of the arrival and the inauguration of a whole new type of society, most famously baptized ‘postindustrial society’...Such theories have the obvious ideological mission of demonstrating, to their own relief, that the new social formation in question no longer obeys the laws of classical capitalism, namely, the primacy of industrial production and the omnipresence of class struggle.”
