Your Definition
A critical term referring to the authoritarian turn within late‑stage capitalism—when economic crises, inequality, and ecological collapse provoke popular resistance, and capitalist states respond with intensified repression, surveillance, and suspension of democratic norms. Unlike earlier welfare‑state compromises, late‑stage authoritarianism shows capitalism without a human face: mass incarceration, police militarization, anti‑protest laws, and the criminalization of poverty. It is the political form of late‑stage capitalism, where markets remain free while people are increasingly unfree.
