Racial capitalism has no contingency
This essay explores theories of racial capitalism for insights about how to reimagine rhetorical advocacy beyond both Marxist formations and new materialist interventions. With an anticapitalist commitment informed by Marxism and the politics of affectivity that resonates with new materialism, Black Studies scholarship forwards key aspects of these two traditions without following into political rigidity or flattening political asymmetries. It do…
Into the Gateway
This is the Guest Editors’ Introduction to a themed issue that reflects on the inaugural Rhetoric Society of America Project, which, in 2019, hosted a range of rhetorical investigations into the University of Nevada, Reno’s Campus Master Plan and its Gateway Precinct. It argues that the recent field orientation to rhetoric pushes rhetoricians to think about how their scholarship might participate in immanent negotiations, mixing slow, deliberate,…
The Body as a Site of Material-Symbolic Struggle
This essay explores how a physiological notion of affect, one predicated on the transsubstantial circulation of micro-materiality, provides useful connectivity among old and new materialisms. First, it explores nascent theories of energetic matter in Marxism as potential sites for new materialist extensions. Second, it proposes affect as a theoretical shorthand for the circulating flows of matter central to the physiological production, orientati…

Rather than surreptitiously crafting discourse to appeal to unconscious public dispositions, as neoliberalism does, it suggests that counterpublics consciously apply this technology to themselves. Specifically, it advocates that they forge a productive friction between rational c…

Over the past 30 years cultural economy has evolved into an important interdisciplinary research paradigm in the humanities and social sciences. Responding to neoclassical economics and its desire
Economic Rhetoric asTaxis
This essay expands the rhetoric of economics conversation started by economist Deirdre McCloskey. Through a close engagement with Michel Foucault's lectures at the Collège de France from 1975 to 1979, concerning the dual problematics of liberalism and biopolitics, we argue for theorizing economic rhetoric as a governmental problem of order, or taxis, which arranges value among divergent subjects beyond the dichotomies of material/cultural and glo…
Regimes of truth, disciplined bodies, secured populations
I am no doubt not the only one who writes in order to have no face. Do not ask who I am and do not ask me to remain the same.The Archaeology of KnowledgeKnowledge ... is the process through which the subject finds himself modified by what he knows, or rather by the labor performed in order to know.Remarks on MarxIn his essay, 'What is an Author' (1970; trans 1977), Michel Foucault posed what he rightly suggested was a 'slightly odd question' (113…
