You can run into them all over the place, even if they are not aware of who they are. Each country produces them in its own way. Their situation isnt so great. These are not young executives. These are strangely indifferent, and for this very reason are in the right frame of mind. They have stopped being demanding and narcissistic, but they know perfectly well that nothing today corresponds to their subjectivity, to their potential of energy. They even know that all current reforms are rather directed against them. They are determined to mind to their own business as much as they can. They hold it open, hang on to something possible. It is Coppola who created their poetized portrait in Rusty James. The actor Mickey Rourke explained: The character is at the end of his rope, on the edge. Hes not the Hells Angel type. Hes got brains and hes got good sense. But he hasnt got any university degree. And it is this combination that makes him go crazy. He knows that theres no job for him because he is smarter than any guy willing to hire him. This is true of the entire world. What we institutionalize for the unemployed, the retired, or in school, are controlled situations of abandonment.... The only subjective redeployments actually occurring collectively are those of an unbridled American-style capitalism, or a Muslim fundamentalism like in Iran... Europe has nothing to suggest. But the field of the possible lives elsewhere... Along the North-South axis, in a new internationalism that no longer relies solely on an alliance with the third-world, but on the phenomena of third-worldficiation in the rich countries themselves (the evolution of metropolises, the decline of the inner-cities, the rise of a European third-world). There can only be creative solutions. - Deleuze and Guattari
