The Son of Patriot Act and the Revenge on Democracy

2004 3 (3) Tamara: Journal for Critical Organization Inquiry

Abstract

Patrick Bateman appears to be the incarnation of a proto-typical Empire citizen. He is a Vampire's Empire's dream come true: Maximising his score in the top-of-the-line investment banking league, celebrating his determination to partake and push through the game at maximum speed---to fast to be determined by any reference system---always on the verge of disintegration. Quite literally, he cannot change his mind. Nobody can. Yet, from this point of view, he pursues every option to bring about change. Just like a whole generation of super-hero managers, an attitude change is not feasible because the confession of failure is not an option. Vanity, to please ones mirror image, remains a driving desire.
