/268/ Emergency vs Emergency ft. Geoff Shullenberger
Added 2022-06-07 06:01:00 +0000 UTC[Live events in Germany: Berlin / Munich]
On emergency politics today.
We talk to Geoff Shullenberger about competing emergency politics, left and right. Should politics be enjoyable and provide a frisson of transgression, or not? Is bare life all that's on offer? And is declaring the predominance of 'emergency politics' itself an emergency a problem?
Readings:
- How We Forgot Foucault, American Affairs
- The Crisis of the Crisis, The New Atlantis

On the topic of all effective politics being boring, one right-wing radical from the US put it well with the phrase "The revolution starts in Excel".
