Abstract:This article analyzes the investment of contemporary political techniques in the destruction and building anew of urban spaces of violence in relation to the politics of collective memory. Using the framework of necropolitics, I show that the spatial methods of necropolitics regulate collective memory on both the involuntary and traumatic levels. This work takes place not only through destruction and elimination of sites, but also their rebuilding. Critical engagement with the necropolitical work of memory opens the possibility of another kind of archive that forges counter-memories from spaces of death.

Abstract:Over the last two decades, Canadian political and social thought has experienced a "treaty turn" that calls for non-Indigenous Canadians to remember a forgotten "settler treaty tradition." In this diagnostic essay, I draw out both a conceptual limitation of this turn in its obfuscation of the critical moment in Indigenous treaty visions, and a political limitation of overlooking the social forces that block and might enable the realization of treaty that follows its emphasis on the vertical (self-interpretation) rather than horizontal (social relation) axis of settler colonial reification.

Abstract:On November 9, 2019, celebrating the 550th birth anniversary of Guru Nanak, Pakistan and India inaugurated the opening of a border corridor—the Kartarpur Corridor. This article traces the political rationality that undergirds the corridor by questioning state intervention and the exception—all of which rely upon the corporate institution that is Christianity. I then examine how the corridor is said to correspond with alternative cartographies thereby removing the instability of sovereign decision. I end by considering how celebration of the corridor signals a slippage between the concepts of "limit" and "border".

According to this framework, the pandemic is a two-part problem: one part virus, one part social resistance to the cure for the disease. [...]we hear that medical scientists have developed "gold standard" treatments for addiction, but that for reasons of bureaucratic lethargy, public skepticism, or sheer hopelessness among those suffering from addiction, the treatments are not adequately made available and sought out. The stories in the book are drawn from oral-history interviews that the author conducted with family members of people with addictions, doctors, community organizers, and treatment-center directors over a period of four years. Chapter Two reconstructs the life of a single man from the memories of his surviving family members, from the moment of his first exposure to opioids through fourteen separate rounds of addiction treatment and up to the moment of his fatal fentanyl overdose.

Abstract:In After Finitude, Meillassoux asks an epoch-defining question: how can we criticize both ideological dogmatism and skeptical fanaticism if the rise of skeptical fanaticism is an effect of the Kantian critical philosophy one must employ against ideological dogmatism? Meillassoux's answer is to argue in favor of thought's ability to access the absolute necessity of contingency. Agamben and Laruelle give an alternative answer. Although very different in style and argument, both aim to disqualify fanatical positions by showing how "the belief that belief is all there is" is not all there is because of the contingent nature of thought about the real. I will argue that while pursuing logics of disqualification, all three thinkers nonetheless employ arguments that render positive claims that sit uncomfortably within their respective systems. The upshot is that the transcendental gesture of critical philosophy—what are the conditions of our positive claims about thought and the world—is halted by an uncritical appeal to the condition of all conditions; intellectual intuition in Meillassoux and an indifferent thought/real in Agamben and Laruelle. But what options remain, given that the problem of critique in an age of indifference is a problem that critical philosophy itself has created? The task, I will argue, is to express the transcendental conditions of what we know about the world and how we know what we know about the world in a manner that retains the contingency of both. But are there variants of contemporary thought that can express the contingency of the real and of thought while remaining within the transcendental apparatus providing the necessary criteria for the challenge of both ideological dogmatism and skeptical fanaticism? I shall bring the argument to a close by suggesting that two such variants are available—transcendental naturalism and transcendental aestheticism—and that the latter provides a secure but non-dogmatic ground for critique in an age of indifference.

Abstract:Indigenous movements against settler sovereignty are often characterized as "civil disobedience." This characterization is problematic as it domesticates Indigenous peoples within the boundaries of settler states. Taking up this problematic, this essay shows that the logic and rhetoric in Hobbes' Leviathan is one that either dissolves collective political resistance into individual self-defense, or delegitimizes it by domesticating Indigenous peoples within the confines of the "civil" order that they challenge. It also shows that Hobbes' attempt to erase past conquests and foreclose future challenges to absolute sovereignty proves that he has to reckon with the temporal origins of political beginnings.
