The transition from wild nature through industrial nature to post-industrial nature reveals various forms of precarisation, whose common denominator is not the threat of scarcity, but rather the excess that is brazenly monopolized by a few exclusive owners. In the case of wild nature or industrial nature, most people may still think that it does not concern them, because only the poorest are affected, and they are certainly to blame. But when we come to post-industrial nature and understand the processes that Shoshana Zuboff describes, we suddenly realize that Marx’s question of whether all private property is not ultimately theft, since it denies property to someone else, concerns us most personally. For the property in question is ourselves, and nothing can assure us that we are not being denied our own being.
