ATP on Problematic-Axiomatic Axiomatics vs Problematics 1, p374 — Nomadology Although safety is a fundamental element in the theoretical norms of the State, and of the political ideal, there is also something else at issue as well. Due to all their procedures, the ambulant sciences quickly overstep the possibility of calculation: they inhabit that “more” [...]

Nate started a great thread over the masculinist undercurrent of ‘militancy.’ (my response would be: we’ve never been militants) I’ve decided to repost my followup comment: I like Jasper’s suggestion – there are two texts that are a must along those lines. First “living and struggling” from Tiqqun http://zinelibrary.info/tiqqun-living-and-wrestling. Second is “this is not the [...]

As I’ve discussed, I’m reticent to accept Schmitt’s notion of politics which seems to be a rejoinder to the ongoing depoliticization produced by the abstract machine ‘Empire’.
