Well, I think you need to more rigidly designate “they,” but since neither debt nor literature-department-influenced frameworks are my actual bailiwick I can’t in confidence help you out here. I do find that some of the Big Inscrutable Names, like Foucault and Althusser, can be useful to think with.
(If it sounds as though I’m being a really poor defender of Critical Whatever it’s because I’m not, really; I’m more used to being typecast as the guy who thinks the cultural turn was bullshit. But it’s not as bullshit as most intelligent outsiders assume, is my incredibly modest claim.)
