Speculative Communities by Aris Komporozos-Athanasiou
Living with Uncertainty in a Financialized World
Explores how the logic and affect of financial speculation seep into everyday life, shaping new forms of collective identity and political action. Through examples ranging from meme-stock frenzies and cryptocurrency communities to conspiracy networks and populist mobilizations, it shows how shared uncertainty, risk, and imagination bind people together and reorganize public life. It warns of the authoritarian potentials of these speculative bonds while also pointing to ways they might be redirected toward more democratic, emancipatory futures.
