Cover -- Contents -- Part I - Break -- 1. Break. We want to break. We want to create a different world. Now. Nothing more common, nothing more obvious. Nothing more simple. Nothing more difficult. -- 2. Our method is the method of the crack. -- 3. It is time to learn the new language of a new struggle. -- Part II - Cracks: The Anti-Politics of Dignity -- 4.

Cracks clash with the social synthesis of capitalism. -- 10. Cracks exist on the edge of impossibility, but they do exist. Moving they exist: dignity is a fleet-footed dance. -- Part IV - The Dual Character of Labour -- 11. The cracks are the revolt of one form of doing against another: the revolt of doing against labour. -- 12. The abstraction of doing into labour is the weaving of capitalism. -- 13.
