Abstract:This paper reflects on the political topology of "safe spaces" today and the logics of their advocacy by minoritized and oppressed groups. To do so, it draws on Derrida, a relentless thinker of aporetic topology. Safe spaces can be described as immunitary structures built or called upon against real and/or perceived threats, whose modes of defense, however, might well threaten the defeat of their purpose. A certain politics of immunity may turn into an auto-immune mechanism whereby, in Derrida's terms, the defense against the perceived external danger turns upon itself and, as such, attacks itself, thus jeopardizing, in the case in point, the democratic ideal it means to uphold. Derrida's political topology and his thinking about democracy can help us tackle the aporetic structure of the safe space as well as the complications—but also the promises—of such political gestures. Conversely, contemporary demands for safety emanating from stigmatized minorities, whether sexual or racial, can help us read Derrida anew by locating his emphasis on immunity and auto-immunity within the trauma-induced politics of resistance to injury.

Abstract:This essay juxtaposes the need to rebuff the erection of walls along with euphemisms about border security, root and branch with the need to call for a defense of borders in the name of the self-determination of collectivities against imperialism, either in the name of human rights or responsibility to protect. In doing so, it calls for retrieving notions of bounded collective life and the exercise of political responsibility by uncompromisingly challenging the racialization and classing of borders as well as resisting that boundary-defying order that is the United States and the capitalist inter-state system over which it presides.

Abstract:This article analyzes what junior officers in the US military read, why such readings are assigned, and how such reading may influence the project of war itself. The main concern of this article is to scrutinize a specific cultural artifact of US imperialism. What books are junior officers in the United States military required to read? Why are they assigned these specific books? How do such readings relate to the project of empire itself? I focus on books assigned to junior officers because these are the under-analyzed military leaders most closely involved with the actual brutality of war. This "combat syllabus" fills a need for the production of both war and warriors within the assemblage of US imperialism.

Abstract:This paper offers a series of (auto)ethnographic reflections on COVID-19 and the ways it changes how we, as educators, practice, perform and inhabit the spaces of higher education. Using a phenomenological framework based on the concept of atmosphere, which constitutes an embodied relation in space, we explore pedagogical relations in our felt university classrooms and lectures theatres. We focus our shared attention on the unexpected and unplanned political possibilities and emotional opportunities that arise from teaching in (post) COVID atmospheres. Thinking atmospherically about pedagogy shows how the dislocating pandemic may open onto a felt politics of disruption and transgression.
