摘要

摘要:本文以遏制流行病传播的挑战为出发点,对生物政治学与接触者追踪之间的联系进行了间接批评。本文将生物政治战略问题与流行病学问题结合起来,遵循了遏制战略、接触者追踪技术以及传播和网络之间的连续性。政府实体采用移动应用程序监测来追踪SARS-CoV-2的传播,无缝地补充了遏制措施。新加坡部署了由卫生部和政府技术局开发的TraceTogether应用程序,绕过了地理位置跟踪的使用:使用邻近数据制定受感染尸体网络,人口经历拓扑变化。借鉴承认技术的变革性质及其对信息社会的影响的传统,本文在马丁·海德格尔和吉尔·德勒兹对技术如何影响人口的生命政治想象的讨论的参数内构建了调查。根据海德格尔的说法,技术理性已经抓住了整个思想的视界,在技术失败的地方,技术理性就会被打断。在这些疏漏中,出现了对社会缺陷进行批判的空间。本文建议对应用监控进行批判性解读,以期在传染相关现象的背景下,探讨过度确定的网络结构的生物政治和哲学含义。

Circuit Breakers and Biopolitical Strategies
Abstract:Taking as a starting point the challenge of containing the spread of epidemics, this article provides an oblique critique of the connections between biopolitics and contact tracing. Aligning the question of biopolitical strategies with epidemiology, the article follows the lines of continuity between containment strategies, contact-tracing technology, and circulations and networks. The uptake of mobile application surveillance by government entities to trace the spread of SARS-CoV-2 has seamlessly supplemented containment measures. Singapore's deployment of TraceTogether, an application developed by the Ministry of Health and Government Technology Agency, circumvents the use of geolocation tracking: formulating a network of infected bodies using proximity data, the population undergoes a topological change. Drawing on a tradition that acknowledges the transformative quality of technology and its implications on information societies, the article frames the enquiry within the parameters of Martin Heidegger's and Gilles Deleuze's deliberations on the ways in which technology is brought to bear on the biopolitical imaginary of a population. The technological rationality that, according to Heidegger, has gripped the entire horizon of thought is opened up for interruption wherever technology fails. In these slippages emerge spaces in which a critique of society's faults may be advanced. This article proposes a critical reading of application surveillance with a view to the biopolitical and philosophical implications of overdetermined network structures against the backdrop of contagion-related phenomena.

期刊介绍: Cultural Politics is an international, refereed journal that explores the global character and effects of contemporary culture and politics. Cultural Politics explores precisely what is cultural about politics and what is political about culture. Publishing across the arts, humanities, and social sciences, the journal welcomes articles from different political positions, cultural approaches, and geographical locations. Cultural Politics publishes work that analyzes how cultural identities, agencies and actors, political issues and conflicts, and global media are linked, characterized, examined, and resolved. In so doing, the journal supports the innovative study of established, embryonic, marginalized, or unexplored regions of cultural politics. Cultural Politics, while embodying the interdisciplinary coverage and discursive critical spirit of contemporary cultural studies, emphasizes how cultural theories and practices intersect with and elucidate analyses of political power. The journal invites articles on representation and visual culture; modernism and postmodernism; media, film, and communications; popular and elite art forms; the politics of production and consumption; language; ethics and religion; desire and psychoanalysis; art and aesthetics; the culture industry; technologies; academics and the academy; cities, architecture, and the spatial; global capitalism; Marxism; value and ideology; the military, weaponry, and war; power, authority, and institutions; global governance and democracy; political parties and social movements; human rights; community and cosmopolitanism; transnational activism and change; the global public sphere; the body; identity and performance; heterosexual, transsexual, lesbian, and gay sexualities; race, blackness, whiteness, and ethnicity; the social inequalities of the global and the local; patriarchy, feminism, and gender studies; postcolonialism; and political activism.
