À la suite de la mort médiatisée de Jamel Dunn en Floride en 2017, le présent article situe l’événement de la mort, du côté gauche, au sein de cycles familiers de condamnation morale et, du côté droit, dans le contexte de circuits récursifs de violence médiatisée et racisée. Alors que nous nous regardons regarder les jeunes qui regardent (et enregistrent) sa mort, cet article cherche à complexifier notre compréhension des propos haineux numériques, de la subjectivité et de la culpabilité morales. Entre la malédiction de la mort et son après-vie récursive, ce travail propose un argument provisoire sur la complicité éthique traversant les écologies de nos médias numériques.

As a colonial centre of North America and the first capitol of the United States, the city of Philadelphia was a central participant in the development of American art and science. This essay reviews three recent texts that seek to understand the interconnected nature of art and science in Philadelphia: Elizabeth Milroy’s The Grid and the River: Philadelphia’s Green Places, 1682–1876, Amy R.W. Myers’s Knowing Nature: Art and Science in Philadelphia, 1740–1840, and Alan C. Braddock and Laura Turner Igoe’s A Greene Country Towne: Philadelphia’s Ecology in the Cultural Imagination. Each volume identifies key figures, objects, and texts that are integral to understanding Philadelphia’s natural environment and the flowering of art and science in the city

Abstract:In Lone Star, John Sayles connects free agency with the power to imagine a future life for oneself in a story, drawing on the metaphor of composing a life as if it were a story. Sam and Pilar, as lovers who discover they are half-siblings, embrace that power when they resolve to "start from scratch" and thereby reject the counter-narrative that holds that their future lives are already authored by history and culture. Critics hold that the film settles on this dichotomy: either we are sovereign self-authors or our destinies are already scripted. However, the film discovers a middle way that reconciles history and freedom, which resonates with Bakhtin's analysis of the relationship between free agency and social change as it is understood in the Bildungsroman.Résumé:Dans Lone Star, John Sayles connecte le libre arbitre avec le pouvoir d'imaginer une vie future pour soi dans une histoire, utilisant la métaphore de créer une vie comme on créerait une histoire.

Les critiques pensent que le film s'en tient à cette dichotomie: soit nous sommes des auteurs souverains ou nos destins sont déjà écrits. Par contre, le film découvre un juste milieu qui réconcilie histoire et liberté, lequel rejoint l'analyse de Bakhtin de la relation entre le libre arbitre et le changement social telle qu'elle est comprise dans le roman d'apprentissage.
摘要:在《孤星》中，约翰·塞尔斯将自由代理与在故事中想象自己未来生活的能力联系起来，将人生比喻为一个故事。山姆和皮拉尔是一对发现自己是同父异母的兄弟姐妹的恋人，当他们决心“从零开始”时，他们接受了这种力量，从而拒绝了认为他们未来的生活已经由历史和文化决定的反叙事。评论家们认为，这部电影采用了这种二分法:要么我们是独立自主的作者，要么我们的命运已经被预设好了。然而，这部电影发现了一条调和历史和自由的中间道路，这与巴赫金在《成长小说》中对自由代理和社会变革之间关系的分析产生了共鸣。rsm:Dans Lone Star, John Sayles连接了自由自由，将自由自由和自由自由结合在一起，将自由自由和自由自由结合在一起，将自由自由和自由自由结合在一起，将自由自由和自由自由结合在一起。Sam和Pilar说，“samjous”和“demi- fretre et demi-sœur”是指“samjous”和“demi- fretre et demi-sœur”，是指“demi- fretre et demi-sœur”，是指“demi- fretre et demi-sœur”，是指“demi- fretre”，是指“demi- fretre”，是指“demi- fretre”，是指“demi- fretre”。批评人士认为，电影本身就是一种“客观的、客观的二分法”:有些人认为，电影本身就是一种“客观的、客观的”，而有些人认为电影本身就是一种“客观的、客观的”。与此相反，电影《不公正的环境》《不公正的环境》《不公正的历史》《自由主义的历史》《自由主义的历史》《自由主义的历史》《自由主义的历史》《自由主义的历史》《自由主义的历史》《自由主义的历史》《自由主义的历史》《自由主义的历史》《自由主义的历史》《自由主义的历史》《自由主义的历史》《自由主义的历史》《自由主义的历史》《自由主义的历史》《自由主义的历史》《学徒》。

In a reading of Carola Dibbell’s debut novel The Only Ones (2015), this article deploys the term “(non-)labour” in two senses: one is a cheeky description of cloning as the activity of reproducing human beings without the traditional sense of labour as delivery of an infant, and the other draws on Marxist-feminist accounts of care work as the remunerated or unremunerated, though structurally necessary, labour required to reproduce the workforce. Dibbell’s novel presents a version of the human as a worker always already embedded in social relations, revealing the violence that thoroughly saturates the biomedical industry. Yet, as this article argues, violent labour is most evident when characters do work that has too long been imagined outside the sphere of value production. The Only Ones illustrates the impossibility of producing value without labour, violent or otherwise; it directs readers to the unlikely places where we already give away our work for free.

In this article, “violent labour” is framed as work that causes harm: work that is necessarily situated in overlapping global contexts of contemporary technological capitalism, and harm that is always itself ecological, in the senses of distributed, relational, and complex. To explicate these senses, I sketch a political ecological case study of the harmful effects of global high-technology industries through the entirety of a causal spectrum that has mineral extraction in central Africa on one end, office jobs in California in the middle, and globally distributed e-waste processing on the other end. Conventional philosophical, legal, and common-sense perspectives that feature intention as the central salient component of violence are critiqued. A consequentialist and phenomenological alternative is proposed wherein the suffering of sentient beings within broadly conceived relational ecologies replaces the violent intent of discrete actors as the key metric for understanding the impacts of work that causes harm, or violent labour.

Charles Chesnutt’s 1905 novel The Colonel’s Dream meditates on the structures of spectacle and ignorance that create a continuity of white privilege and white supremacy from North to South, and on the role that the nascent prison-industrial complex plays in that process. Chesnutt uses occasional gothic irruptions within his otherwise realist and sentimental form to show how “hidden” and spectacular punishments, legal and extra-legal state violence, all function to impose a purposeful ignorance of their very existence: punishments, their spectacular renditions, and the public’s turning away from them combine to become a structuring aporia that maintains white supremacy in the face of democratic resistance.

Abstract:Contrary to popular political pundit monkey chatter, the current political economy of the United States is not the result of the Bush Republicans, the Obama/Clinton Democrats, or even the Liberal/Conservative schism stemming from the New Deal era. The creation of the early American republic left numerous issues unresolved and set in motion machinery that has manifested itself in government by Wall Street bankers and war profiteers, a foreign policy dominated by militarism, and an economy hooked on war. By employing a potent combination of a close reading of the sources, good writing, and intellectual honesty, author William Hoge-land connects the dots on the origins of corporate American hegemony.Résumé:Contrairement aux idées répandues par le verbiage de politicologues populistes, la situation politicoéconomique actuelle des États-Unis n’est pas le produit des républicains de l’ère des Bush, ni des démocrates de l’ère Obama-Clinton, ni même du schisme entre libéraux et conservateurs à la suite du New Deal. Dès sa fondation, la République des États-Unis d’Amérique a laissé de multiples questions en suspens et enclenché les rouages d’une machine d’État caractérisée par la gouvernance des banquiers de Wall Street et des profiteurs de guerre, une politique étrangère soumise au militarisme et une économie accro à la guerre. Alliant de façon convaincante la lecture serrée des sources, le sens du récit et l’intégrité intellectuelle, William Hogeland remplit les blancs sur un portrait de naissance – celui de l’hégémonie étatsunienne de l’entreprise.
