Abstract: How do we ‘do theory’ in the present' How do we think and feel (in) the Anthropocene' I want to propose that we now often do so in a distinctly reparative way.Repair, both in a literal and metaphorical sense, has already received some attention in the humanities and social sciences. There is, for instance, one short philosophical study of repair as an anthropological constant (homo reparans) (Spelman) and, in the wake of Eve Sedgwick’s influential essay on ‘paranoid’ and ‘reparative’ reading (123–51), a broader debate within literary studies and queer studies (cf., e.g., Love; Wiegman et al.), as well as the occasional consideration from within other fields, such as media and technology studies (Jackson), art ...

Abstract: This article intervenes in the critical debate about the conceptual and ideological implications of Global North environmentalism in the history of empire and its persistent legacies. It does so by examining Amitav Ghosh’s 2005 novel The Hungry Tide. Though this article is not principally focused on Ghosh’s broad project or the form of the novel, its engagement with the novel’s compelling stories of lives martyred in a historical movement against ecological imperialism anchors and coheres an interdisciplinary conversation about topography, forestry, aid, and politics that underscores the bootprints of empire across variegated realms. The article’s attention to the novel’s dramatic portrayal of the co-existence of ... Read More

Abstract: “Representation” and “articulation” are important terms in discussions of multispecies relations. The term “representation” has garnered much critique across a range of disciplines, including political theory, philosophy, legal studies, linguistics, psychology, cognitive science, art history, and literature. In the representation framework, reality is split into two camps, the representer and the represented: the world and words; mute matter and speaking humans; subject and object. The link between the two is constantly in question. Indeed, representation itself is in a state of perpetual difficulty as there are always questions of who is represented, how they are represented, and to what extent the represented can ... Read More

Abstract: In the opening scene of J.G. Ballard’s prophetic 1964 novel The Drought, a formerly abundant lake shrivels to nothing under the influence of anthropogenic climate change. The ocean, which has become saturated in plastic pollution, no longer is able to evaporate into rain, as “the sea had constructed a skin no thicker than a few atoms” (37) from accumulated polymers and nuclear waste. As a result, rivers and lakes dry up, and the land becomes infertile. As the water recedes, houseboats are left stranded, fishermen left without jobs, while the slopes of the mud are “covered with the bodies of dead birds and fish” (4). Throughout the novel, housing and industrial equipment formerly used around water become exposed to ... Read More

Abstract: After over 30 years, Gilles Deleuze’s “Postscript on the Societies of Control” still offers a fascinatingly precise and concise description of present-day capitalist societies, including digital strategies of control and exclusion as well as the neoliberal imperative to adopt ever-changing rules, and requirements for “machinic coupling” as “dividuals” rather than individuals. Deleuzian dividualism has given a point of departure to recent ponderings about self-differentiation, self-optimization, self-“singularization” (Reckwitz), indebtment (Graeber; Lazzarato), the desire for incessant “instant-gratification” leading to “depressive hedonia” (Fisher) as well as fatigue (Ehrenberg) and burnout (Han).However, the ...

Abstract: With its absence of commentaries, imitative reproductions, unreflective quarrels, baseless miscomprehensions, creative research, faithful admiration, and the works of thought that accompanied it, the reception of Blanchot’s work was perhaps more diverse than that of any other major body of work of its time, of any time. However, it always lacked free discussion unhindered by creative ambitions or by complacent reiterations of the ‘themes’ at its heart.The notorious difficulty of Maurice Blanchot’s writing has been extensively documented, as is evidenced by how hesitant his contemporaries have been to engage with his work. Serious considerations of Blanchot’s thought did begin to accumulate in the 1970s, a period ... Read More

Abstract: In Primal Philosophy: Rousseau with Laplanche, Lucas Fain sets out to explicate the very possibility of philosophy, with its origins in wonder and its end in happiness. He moves toward these goals through a comprehensive reading of Jean-Jacques Rousseau’s “Socratism” intercalated with Jean Laplanche’s psychoanalytic intervention focused on the universality of untranslatable “enigmatic messages” that shape the (un)conscious of each individual. Through this combination of trajectories, Fain hopes both to deconstruct philosophy’s metaphysical origins along the lines of thinkers from Descartes through Badiou, and also return this fundamental question back to the emergence of the wisdom of eudaimonia, the flourishing of ...
