Journal Article
Teresa Brennan (1952-2003): A Retrospective
2006
Overview
The promise of instant gratification offered by the vending machine that provides instantly upon the insertion of a coin, the fastfood establishment that promises no delay, the internet connection that promises immediate access are, for Brennan, all evidence that the promise of service appeals to a desire for domination and control. The principal form of market economy that predated capitalism, and might succeed it, had a different relation to space and time. Globalization and its Terrors itself is full of criticism of the products of this creativity (e.g. genetic engineering); its purpose in Brennan's Utopia is left undiscussed.
