2. (Dis)entangling the ontopolitics of ecological theorizing for critical communication.

Rife, Tyler S.
- Abstract
Amidst the Anthropocene, the contentious term given to our planetary epoch defined by human domination over earth systems, this essay will offer a series of explorations that illustrate the potentialities between critical communication theorizing and ecological thought. To help articulate this convergence, I organize my essay around the thematic figuration of "threads" to constellate an ongoing effort by scholars in and beyond the communication discipline who seek to conjure the theoretical tools necessary to register the complexity of power's contemporary mode of expression. I navigate this threaded figuration in three ways. First, I demonstrate how the ecosophical model outlined in Félix Guattari's political manifesto The Three Ecologies offers ground for contextualizing mutations of power in the Anthropocene while warranting a theoretical collaboration between ecosophy and critical communication in the present. Second, I apply Guattari's ecosophical model to critical rhetoric, advancing a theoretical heuristic resonant with border rhetorics that may help critical communication scholars ontopolitically figure the power formations of our time. Third, I attempt to synthesize three "problematic threads" organizing contemporary discourses of critical and ecological theorizing. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] more...

This essay deals with one of the hottest debates in contemporary feminism: the dispute between those who advocate the recognition of trans identities through gender self-determination and those who argue that the latter represents a threat to the prevailing legal frameworks. In this text, both conceptions are reconstructed using the tools of analytical metaphysics and gender studies. Thus, a distinction is made between materially grounded identities and self-ascriptive nomenclatural identities. My central aim, beyond offering such a characterization, is to examine which of these conceptions is most compatible with a conception of justice that puts individual liberties at the center.

This article examines three distinct onto-political modes: the human-centric onto-politics of ‘centring the human’, post-human onto-politics of ‘de-centring the human’, and a third mode that rejects and argues against these options in favour of jettisoning the human/non-human dyad altogether. Instead of placing humans ‘in or on the loop’ with other species, a third model would place humans ‘out of the loop’ of command. I argue that contrary to claims, the post-human declaration of ‘de-centring the human’ cannot be considered ‘post-anthropocentric’ (implying the abolition of anthropocentrism), though it can be considered ‘anti-anthropocentric’. Only the onto-politics of abolition would truly be post-anthropocentric, because only it would eliminate the human/non-human conceptual dualism upon which the onto-politics of centring and de-centring is based. more...

9. Securing conservation Lebensraum? The geo-, bio-, and ontopolitics of global conservation futures

- Abstract
The geographical concept of Lebensraum (“living space”) was coined most significantly by the German scholar Friedrich Ratzel towards the end of the nineteenth century. Through the lens of Lebensraum, Ratzel reformulated Darwin's conception of evolution as a “struggle for life” into a “struggle for space”, highlighting how nonhuman species – as well as biologically conceived human 'races', nations, states, and empires – grew organically in space and colonized it. Although the concept attained considerable influence in the first half of the twentieth century, after World War II it largely fell into disrepute due to its various imperialist, colonialist, and fascist associations. Yet in some ways, contemporary academic debates concerning land and resource governance continue to implicitly or partially evoke the substance of certain Lebensraum conceptualizations. This is particularly so with respect to debates about global biodiversity conservation. Revisiting both Ratzelian and other fin de siècle theorizations of Lebensraum, we argue that contemporary efforts to reformulate conservation governance at the planetary scale risk amounting to a form of what we term “conservation Lebensraum”, or a globally-significant “struggle for conservation space”. Analysing the implications of conservation Lebensraum through a tripartite conceptual framework at the intersection of conservation biopolitics, geopolitics, and ontopolitics, we highlight how global biodiversity conservation initiatives seek to respond to multiple socio-ecological crises in the so-called Anthropocene. We end with a brief discussion of more socio-ecologically just alternatives to conservation Lebensraum, thereby contributing to critical conversations about the political ecology of emergent conservation futures. more...

In recent years there have been calls for scholars working within sport and physical culture to recognise the (increasing) confluence of nature and culture. Situated within an emerging body of new materialist research, such accounts have shown how various activities are polluted by, fused to, and assembled with non-human entities. However, more work is needed on the political possibilities afforded by non-human agency, and by extension, the implications that such flat ontological arrangements might raise for the management and governance of physical culture. Building on research conducted with mountain bike trail builders, this article seeks to explore what it means to know, to be, and to govern a human subject in the Anthropocene. Specifically, I draw on James Ash's (2019) post-phenomenological theory of space and David Chandler's (2018) notion of onto-political hacking to show how the playful, contingent, and transformative practices of the mountain bike assemblage confront the linear and calculated governance of the English countryside. In doing so, mountain bike trails are positioned as objects of hope that allow for a collective re-imagining of political democracy in a more-than-human landscape. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] more...

This paper evaluates the biopolitical implications of COVID-19 pandemic in Peru and the world. It proposes that, due to the coronavirus characteristics and its effects on the populations' health, security and economy, this disease has the ability to reveal the true biopolitical approaches adopted by each nation. The application of necropolitics as government measures to confront the coronavirus, with inequity and inefficiency, is reviewed. In the same way, the concept of ontopolitics is developed as a fundamental tool for defining reality and its components, an act that will decide the implementation of the different disease containment plans. After reviewing its historical and practical connotations, the term "idiopolitics" is proposed to denote that type of government that, in open contradiction with the main objective of politics, of seeking the common good for the citizens of the state, manages and disposes of the public resources guided by particular needs and interests.

Tabletop role-play games (TRPG s) are undergoing a resurgence in popularity tied, in part, to the release of Dungeons and Dragons (5th edition) and a vibrant culture of live-streaming role-play games online. Research has now also shown that TRPG s – such as Dungeons and Dragons – provide a unique environment for the development of prosocial behaviours. There is an opportunity for researchers interested in political emotions and ideological performance to explore a community of collaborative storytelling where the altruism derided by philosophies of neoliberal economic rationalism is performed as a core value, with tangible outcomes for tolerance, generosity and well-being. As TRPG s become commonly accepted as part of the toolkit in both education and therapeutic contexts, they provide a new avenue of engagement for those interested in the development of prosocial values, community and social inclusion in the digital age.

13. Becoming Indigenous: the 'speculative turn' in anthropology and the (re)colonisation of indigeneity.

MODERNITY , *COLONIES , *IMPERIALISM , *ANTHROPOLOGY , *EUROCENTRISM - Abstract
The Indigenous have become central to contemporary critical and governmental imaginaries as the West tries to cope with planetary crises imbricated in the legacies of modernity and settler colonialism. As such, Indigenous methods and practices are increasingly constructed as offering futural possibilities for 'becoming' rather than belonging to the archives of an underdeveloped past. Central to this transformation has been the speculative or ontological turn in anthropological discourse, which we argue has opened up new possibilities for a Western and colonial appropriation of indigeneity. This turn is the subject of this article and is critically engaged with to pursue a number of avenues which problematise this form of 'ontopolitical anthropology'. The reduction of Indigenous lives to the speculative 'other' of Western modernity inherently tends to reify or 'exoticise' Indigenous thought and practices or, as we state, to 'ontologize indigeneity'. This, we argue, is particularly problematic in the context where critical imaginaries of precarious 'life in the ruins' tend to affirm contemporary governmental approaches rather than challenge them. Ironically, rather than opening up alternative possibilities, these approaches reduce the reality of Indigenous struggles and sufferings to a mere foil for the speculative imaginaries of a privileged white Eurocentric academic elite.

14. How to Do Things in the Plasticene: Ontopolitics of Plastics in Arendt, Barthes, and Massumi.

ANTHROPOCENE Epoch ,COLONIZATION - Abstract
In this paper, I develop three models for understanding plastic in the Plasticene epoch through readings of Arendt, Barthes, and Massumi. In the Ardentian model, plastic is made intransitive. It is withdrawn so far into the background of human experience as that which enables social and individual life of humans that it becomes the unthinkable. It can be argued that it is pushed to the background and made intransitive because of a certain image of the human and cyclical image of nature. The second model is Barthesian, and in it plastic becomes a signifying matter understood through a semiotic model. Plastic and products of plastic become signifiers in the ideological work of discourse. In the Massumian model, plastic is affective; it is a relational body in the process of becoming, simultaneously intensive and multiple in its eventfulness. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] more...

While modernist or 'top-down', 'command-and-control' approaches to climate and migration worked at the surface or ontic level of the redistribution of entities in time and space, resilience approaches call for a different approach to mobility. These discourses construct mobilities that are more transformative; in fact, ones that question traditional liberal modernist notions of time and space and of entities with fixed essences. These mobilities do not concern moving entities in space but rethinking mobility in relation to space. Mobility then becomes more a matter of changing the understandings and practices relating to spaces and entities than of moving things from one place to another. Becoming 'mobile' thus would apply to the development of capabilities or 'response-abilities' to sense, adapt, recompose, repurpose and reimagine problems and possibilities; taking responses to crises beyond the static and binary conceptions of mobility and space.

INDIGENOUS ethnic identity , *IMPERIALISM , *DECOLONIZATION , *ACQUISITION of territory , *HEGEMONY - Abstract
This article critiques the shift towards valorizing indigeneity in western thought and contemporary practice. This shift in approach to indigenous ways of knowing and being, historically derided under conditions of colonialism, is a reflection of the “ontological turn” in anthropology. Rather than seeing indigenous peoples as having an inferior or different understanding of the world to a modernist one, the ontological turn suggests that their importance lies in the fact that they constitute different worlds and “world” in a performatively different way. The radical promise this view holds is that a different world already exists in potentia, the access to which is a question of ontology—of being differently: ‘being in being’ rather than thinking, acting and world-making as if we were transcendent or “possessive” modern subjects. We argue that the ontopolitical arguments for the superiority of indigenous ways of being should not be seen as radical or emancipatory resistances to modernist or colonial epistemological and ontological legacies but rather as a new form of neoliberal governmentality, cynically manipulating critical, postcolonial and ecological sensibilities for its own ends. Thus, rather than “provincializing” dominant western hegemonic practices, such discourses of indigeneity extend them, instituting new forms of governing through calls for adaptation and resilience.

The composition, use, policies, and the societal position of cannabis are changing and diversifying internationally. Cannabis has emerged as an object of much controversy and is subject to varying forms of regulation. Its role and regulation is also debated in the Nordic countries. To shed light on such developments, this special issue sets out to explore how the phenomenon of cannabis, and related policies and subjectivities, are currently made, unmade, and transformed in multiple ways through discourses, practices, and materiality, and with different consequences.

Throughout history, maps have been a powerful tool in the constitutive imaginary of governments seeking to define or contest the limits of their political reach. Today, new digital technologies have become central to mapping as a way of formulating alternative political visions. Mapping can also help marginalised communities to construct speculative designs using participatory practices. Mapping and Politics in the Digital Age explores how the development of new digital technologies and mapping practices are transforming global politics, power, and cooperation. The book brings together authors from across political and social theory, geography, media studies and anthropology to explore mapping and politics across three sections. Contestations introduces the reader to contemporary developments within mapping and explores the politics of mapping as a form of knowledge and contestation. Governance analyses mapping as a set of institutional practices, providing key methodological frames for understanding global governance in the realms of urban politics, refugee control, health crises and humanitarian interventions and new techniques of biometric regulation and autonomic computation. Imaginaries provides examples of future-oriented analytical frameworks, highlighting the transformation of mapping in an age of digital technologies of control and regulation. In a world conceived as without borders and fixed relations, new forms of mapping stress the need to rethink assumptions of power and knowledge. This book provides a sophisticated and nuanced analysis of the role ofmapping in contemporary global governance, and will be of interest to students and researchers working within politics, geography, sociology, media, and digital culture and technology.

In this article, I explore several of Foucault's claims in relation to race, biopolitics, and power in order to illuminate some concerns in the wake of the post-9.11.01 political regime of population management. First, what is the relationship between sovereignty and power? Foucault's writings on the relation between sovereignty and power seem to differ across his writings, such that it is not clear whether he had definitively circumscribed the role of sovereignty in relation to "power." Second, while central sovereign authority, at least in "Society Must Be Defended" has been displaced by Foucault's analysis of power, the question still remains as to what drives or instantiates the exercise of power. I lay out an account of what I will call "ontopolitics," as one that foregrounds the role of sovereign authority in ascribing racial divisions. Moreover, these divisions are driven by cultural, social, and moral criteria that complement--or circumscribe--biopolitics and are inscribed at the level of the ontological, or onto-ethical.

Tezin araştırma sorusu Antik Yunan Felsefesindeki Varlık Problem(ler)inin Ontolojik-Politik bir tarzda incelenenip incelenemeyeceği üzerinedir. Varlık meselelerini tartışmak için meseleye özel bir çerçeve oluşturulması gerektiğini savunan tez genel olarak Ontopolitika ve özel anlamda Ontolojik-Politikayı geliştirmektedir. Ontopolitika, kısaca, varlığın politik olduğunu savunur: Her şey güç ilişkileri içerisinde varolmaktadır ve 'ontoloji' bu bağlamda bir güç ilişkileri ağı olarak ortaya konmaktadır. Ontolojik-Politika iise şeylerin temel güç alakalarına odaklanan Ontopolitik bir disiplindir. Tez aynı zamanda Varlık ve Politikanın ilişkisini gösterebilmek için Politika üzerine de genel bir çerçeve oluşturmaktadır. Bu noktada, tez tez felsefe tarihinin çözümlenmesi için bir yöntem oluşturmakta ve bu metodu Antik Yunan Felsefesine uygulamaktadır. Kısaca, yöntem güç ilişkilerinin ortaya çıkarılması ve araştırma konusunun ontolojisi, yani Antik Yunan ontolojisi, yöntemsel olarak kabul edilirse araştırma konusunun varoluşsal, temel, deneyimleri ortaya konabilir. Buna uygun olarak bu aşamadan sonra tez filozofların ve ontolojilerinin içerisinde bulundukları özel güç ilişkilerini araştırarak Antik Yunan Felsefesindeki varlık meselesini incelemektedir.Anahtar Kelimeler: Ontoloji, Ontopolitika, Ontolojik-Politika, Varlık, Politika, Antik Yunan Felsefesi, Güç İlişkileri The main research question of this thesis is whether it is possible to study the problem(s) of being in Ancient Greek Philosophy in an Ontological-political way. In order to discuss the issues of being, thesis defends the need of a unique framework about being and constructs Ontopolitics in general, and Ontological-Politics in particular. Briefly, Ontopolitics defends that being is political: Every thing exists by being within power relations and ontology, in this sense, refers to a web of power relations. Ontological-Politics is an Ontopolitical discipline that focuses on the fundamental power relations of things. Thesis also provides a framework about Politics in order to show the relation between Being and Politics. Then, thesis attempts to construct a method of analysis of history of philosophy and applies this method to the Ancient Greek Philosophy. Simply, method suggests that by revealing the power relations of things and methodically accepting the ontology of the unit(s) of analysis, it may be possible to recreate the existential, fundamental, experience of the unit, namely Ancient Greece. Then, thesis analyzes the issue of being by investigating particular strategies, power relations, which philosophers and their ontology are/were within.

Deleuze para a filosofia política contemporânea. Com este objetivo veremos que Deleuze toma o conceito de poder em Foucault e lhe confere alçada ontológica. Este conceito de poder dá acesso a outro elemento importante da filosofia política deleuzeana, ou seja, o estudo dos diagramas históricos do poder nas denominadas sociedades disciplinar e de controle. Com o diagrama de funcionamento das mesmas podemos entender qual o retrato deleuzeano para a democracia em sociedades contemporâneas. Adentrando a ontopolítica deleuzeana, nos dedicaremos aos conceitos de maioria, minoria e devir-minoritário. É neste ponto que se faz o encontro da ontopolítica de Deleuze com a ontologia matemática de Ch. Sanders Peirce. Acontece que os conceitos ontopolíticos de Deleuze, além de sua vinculação com uma ontologia do poder, recebem também um tratamento matemático, tendo em vista certas noções aritméticas (contável e não contável) e geométricas (linhas). As maiorias e minorias são conjuntos contáveis que são atravessados por devires não contáveis. Com isso, chegaremos ao ponto central do presente artigo, onde realizamos incursão inicial à imagem dos conceitos de maioria e minoria em Deleuze, com base na teoria das coleções e multidões de C.S. Peirce, principalmente com relação à ontologia matemática nela incluída. Quanto a isso, a principal operação será mostrar de que forma a distinção deleuzeana entre maiorias/minorias contáveis e devir-minoritário não contável pode ser escandida em termos de coleções discretas denominadas enumeráveis, denumeráveis e abnumeráveis ou pósnumeráveis, de acordo com a terminologia de Peirce. This article aims at developing the so-called ontopolitics as G. Deleuze s innovative contribution to contemporary political philosophy. This objective will lead us to inspect the concept of power that Deleuze borrowed from Foucault and extended in order to assign to it an ontological adequacy. The concept of power opens access to another important element of the Deleuzean political philosophy, that is, the study of the historical diagrams of the power in the so-called discipline and control societies. With the combined dynamical diagram of both, we become aware of the portrait Deleuze draws for the democracy in contemporary societies. Digging into the Deleuzean ontopolitics, we will devote ourselves to the concepts of majority, minority and minor-becoming. It is in this point that the meeting between Deleuze s ontoplitics and Ch. Sanders Peirce s mathematical ontology becomes sound. It happens that Deleuze s ontopolitical concepts, besides their bond to an ontology of the power, receive also a mathematical treatment related to certain arithmetical (denumerable and nondenumerable) and geometrical notions (lines). The majorities and minorities are denumerable sets which are crossed by nondenumerable becomings. This step done, we will reach the stand point of the present paper, where we carry out initial approach with regard to an image for the concepts of majority and minority on the basis of Peirce s theory of collections and multitudes, mostly envisaging the mathematical ontology included in it. Accordingly, the main operation to be accomplished is that the Deleuzean distinction between the denumerable majorities/minorities and the nondenumerable mino-becoming may be mapped out in terms of discrete collections called enumerable, denumerable and abnumerable or postnumerable, in compliance with Peirce s terminology.
