• The Introduction presents the premise of the book and contains short summaries of each chapter. The book is an effect of a conference "Many Regimes of Capital in the Postdigital Age" held by the Techno-Humanities Lab at the University of Warsaw. It is divided into four parts. The first part surveys the changes in contemporary capitalism with a special focus on the question if the emergence of the "vectoralist" class as described by McKenzie Wark means that we have exited capitalism altogether; the second part focuses on the changes of capital in the information age; the third part enquires into the problem of social capital in contemporary capitalism; and the fourth part focuses on capitalism's "Others" - the movements of resistance and revolution. The Introduction ends with a short acknowledgments section.
