Futural Dispatches on Responsibility for the Earth, or, ‘What on Earth Is Ethical Responsibility?’
This article explores the question of the limits of ethical responsibility in the context of the contemporary ecological crisis. Drawing centrally on a selection of writings by Jacques Derrida, Emmanuel Levinas and, in the second half of the article especially, Timothy Morton, it attempts to show how the conceptualization of the Earth/environment/biosphere (tropes for the ‘ecological whole’) as an object of ethical concern is problematic and exac…
Online Drug Scenes and Harm Reduction From Below as Phronesis
This article presents a theoretical critique of the notion of harm reduction on the basis of an empirical investigation of a variety of online manifestations of drug culture. Taking a multicase study approach to drug use–related forums, blogs, and “story sites” focused on novel psychoactive substances/“legal high” use and nonmedicinal prescription drug use, our analysis leads us to describe the culture of “harm reduction from below” in terms of t…
Off the Record
This article aims to demonstrate how the formation of ethical subjectivity must be considered in conjunction with the techno-politics of secrecy and disclosure, and it proposes an account of the ways in which the technical transition and 'democratization' of archival upload/download capacity associated with digital communications fundamentally challenges the existing structure of control over such things as censorship and cultural memory understo…
Touch, Time and Technics
The development of immersive media-communication environments, and their theorization in terms of the 'haptic', calls for a reconsideration of the relationship between sensuality and the ethics of contact. For the most part, the cultural theorization of the virtual which remains preoccupied with the visual has tended to limit its scope to the paradoxes, politics and ethics of representation. Much of media and cultural studies work, for instance, …
Cultural Studies and the Extreme
Examines Bataille theory of excess and depense, using Bataillean theory (Visions of Excess/The Accursed Share) to think through aspects of contemporary consumer culture and the cultural deployment of the the notion of the extreme.
New Cultural Studies
What should or could cultural studies look like in the 21st Century? New Cultural Studies is both an introductory reference work and an original study which explores some of the most exciting new directions currently being opened up in cultural studies. A new generation has begun to emerge from the shadow of the Birmingham School: a generation who have turned to theory as a means to think through some of the crucial problems and issues in contemp…
Labial feminism
(1996). Labial feminism: Body against body with Luce Irigaray. Parallax: Vol. 2, Dissonant Feminisms, pp. 65-79
