Transmodernity, border thinking, and global coloniality

Decolonizing political economy and postcolonial studies

Postmodernism as an epistemological project still reproduces a particular form of coloniality. A decolonial perspective requires a broader canon of thought that would require taking seriously the epistemic insights of critical thinkers from the global South. [ more ]

We, the President

"Le Monde diplomatique" (Berlin) enjoys the view from Slovenia's presidential balcony; "Krytyka" debates genocide; "Osteuropa" compiles a green book on eastern Europe; "Vikerkaar" revisits the Bronze Soldier debate; "Merkur" is wary of the Left's use of opinion polls; "Roots" poses the Macedonian question; "L'Homme" thematizes caring and fighting women; and "Esprit" watches the world in a hurry.

Sven-Eric Liedman

The rebirth of religion and enchanting materialism

While Europe is the exception in the global de-secularization of politics, theoretical interest in theological issues has been rising. Sven-Eric Liedman places "soft naturalism" against militant atheism and makes a plea for a "matérialisme enchanté". [more]

Geert Lovink

Blogging, the nihilist impulse

Media theorist and Internet activist Geert Lovink formulates a theory of weblogs that goes beyond the usual rhetoric of citizen journalism. [Italian and Swedish versions added] [more]

Rainer Just

Against love

Seeking the literary traces of the Natascha Kampusch affair

"The birth of love out of the spirit of totalitarianism expressed itself in exemplary manner in the Kampusch abduction story. A person is shut in, all the others shut out -- that is the ideological core of romantic love." [more]

Les Back

Phobocity

London and the War on Terror

In London post-7/7, the wail of police sirens has become the soundtrack of the "phobocity". But the phobocity is not created by the suicide bombers alone -- politicians and journalists also trade on fear. [more]

Irena Maryniak

The Polish plumber and the image game

The Polish plumber is a cliché throughout Europe, which even the Polish tourist board has made use of. However, in the UK the joke veils a growing resentment towards workers from the new EU states. [more]

Staffan Granér

Hernando de Soto and the mystification of capital

Hernando de Soto argues that global poverty could be relieved by giving the poor official ownership of their property. But this argument is more likely to be used to defend the sacred right of private ownership. [more]

Tatiana Zhurzhenko

Roses, oranges... and coca

What remains of revolutions in the globalized world?

Unlike the Orange revolutionaries, Bolivian president Evo Morales challenges the global hierarchy -- hence his lukewarm reception in the West. [more]

Michael Azar

A barbarian in Beirut

Isreal's attempts to bomb Hezbollah out of Beirut has a precedent in Mossad's assassination of three PLO leaders in Beirut in 1973. Two years later, Lebanon found itself in the clutch of civil war, writes Michael Azar. [more]

Saskia Sassen

Is this the way to go?

Handling immigration in a global era

As Europe more than ever fortifies its borders against illegal immigrants, what about the increase in human trafficking? [more]

Bat-Ami Bar On

An Arendtean Scaffold for Thinking About Terrorism

The response to the terrorist attacks on the United States on 11 of September 2001 is based on theories of war that no longer apply, says Bat-Ami Bar On. However, can politics without violence at all deal with the current versions of totalitarian violent terror? Bar On turns to Hannah Arendt to find an answer. [more]

Ulrich Beck

The cosmopolitan state

Towards a Realistic Utopia

The global terrorist threat is part of the risk society and blurs the distinction between internal and external security. Ulrich Beck concludes that in order to be able to deal with their national problems today's states have to de-nationalise and trans-nationalise themselves. [more]

Michael Hardt, Antonio Negri

Marx's Mole is Dead!

Globalisation and Communication

Drawing on their book Empire, Michael Hardt and Antonio Negri show how the resistance of the working class has prefigured the globalisation of capital. Now, they contend, we face a new, universal order that accepts no boundaries or limits – Empire. [more]

Slavoj Zizek

The Morning After

Milosevic has reached the end of his road, but Serbia's journey to self-reconstruction has only just begun

The magic moment did come: Milosevics leadership is over. But what can Yugoslavia expect from its daily life once the exitement of victory has died down? Slavoj Zizek paints a picture of extreme capitalism going hand in hand with violent nationalism. [more]

Immanuel Wallerstein

The Politics of Euroscepticism

On Sept. 28, 2000, Denmark voted not to join the euro, an example of a persistent Euroscepticism. Denmark has been strongly marked by it, but it exists to some extent in most European countries. What lies behind this reluctance to move forward with Europe among a large minority of Europeans? [more]

Immanuel Wallerstein

The Racist Albatross

Social Science, Jörg Haider and Widerstand

Racism is an inescapable part of our history, of our present and of ourselves. Only when we realise this can we also understand the role of racism in the world-system, and only then are we able to interpret the successes of the populists and the extreme right – as well as the resistance that these successes have triggered. [more]

Slavoj Zizek

Why do we all love to hate Haider?

In the ”post-political era” the choice between Left and Right has lost its meaning, says Slavoj Zizek. The return of the extreme Right is the price that the ”Third Way” social democracy is paying for its renunciation of any radical political project. [more]

Lothar Baier

Happy is, who forgets

A flood of criticism hit Austria when the Freedom Party was included in the government. Self-appointed ”experts” deemed the alpine republic plague-infected and put it in quarantine. But in order to repudiate Austria, Europe has made itself blind of its own history, says Lothar Baier. [more]

Kulturradikalismen och den praktiska nordismen

Den norske litteraturvetaren Eivind Tjønneland kritiserar unga norska författare och intellektuella för att retirera in i kulturkonservatism, nyreligiositet och självplågeri. Mot detta vill han ställa en revitaliserad kulturradikalism som har frigjort sig från en uttjänt, reflexmässig antiamerikanism och från den förutsägbara kritiken av populärkultur och konsumtionssamhälle.

Digital antiprovinsialism

Om nödvändigheten av en europeisk intellektuell offentlighet

Carl Henrik Fredriksson beskriver den digitala tidskriften Eurozine - ett försök skapa en motvikt till de alltmer koncentrerade mediestrukturerna, där väsentligheter inte får plats och enhetsideologin kväver varje "olikhet" som inte är pikant. [more]

När alla talar med en röst

Den publicistiska enhetsideologins principlöshet

Vad är det egentligen som sker i den svenska tidningsvärlden? Turerna kring Ingrid Elams avhopp från tjänsten som kulturchef på Dagens Nyheter bekräftar de farhågor som hennes företrädare Arne Ruth gav uttryck för då han lämnade tidningen 1998. Carl Henrik Fredriksson förklarar varför ett två år gammalt brev har en hel del att säga om dagens situation. [more]
