摘要
在与理查德-绍尔(Richard Saull)的重要著作《资本、种族与空间》(Capital, Race and Space)的互动中,我重点关注了阴谋论信仰与右翼激进化之间的联系。我想说的是,阴谋论是一种特殊形式的社会想象。在这种情况下,右翼或法西斯主义政治运动的社会想象涉及对全球病症的主张,而这些病症似乎隐藏在民族国家的社会现实之外。值得称赞的是,绍尔认真对待了这些观念所起到的作用。我从乔治-巴蒂尔(George Bataille)对法西斯主义的理解来扩展分析。在巴蒂尔看来,法西斯主义就是要创造一种必要感,以对抗试图破坏特定生活方式的卑劣力量(全球范围)。
Conspiratorial imaginaries of the right: a commentary on capital, race and space by Richard Saull
In my engagement with Richard Saull’s important work Capital, Race and Space, I focus on the nexus between belief in conspiracy theories and right-wing radicalization. I want to suggest that a conspiracy theory is a particular form of social imaginary. In this case, the social imaginaries that lend themselves to right-wing or fascistic political movements concern claims about global pathologies that appear hidden from the social reality of the nation-state. To his credit, Saull takes seriously the role that such ideas have. I extend the analysis by turning to George Bataille’s understanding of fascism. For Bataille, fascism is about creating a feeling of necessity to confront the abject forces (global in scope) that seek to undermine a particular way of life.
