Summary/Abstract: The article is an unfinished introduction to a book that the late philosopher Mark Fisher planned late in his life and that he never had a chance to complete.In it, he outlines the concept of acid communism, i.e. a mental provocation pointingto the need to rethink the cultural heritage of the radical movements of the 1960sand 1970s, especially in the context of a tension between the individual and thecollective that was inherent within them. The works of Herbert Marcuse, in parti-cular, remain an important inspiration for Fisher’s thoughts.
