White by Force and the Racialized State of Exception
White identity is forged through violence. The moment that whites aspired to be white, they set themselves up for immediate, inevitable failure: they try to inhabit an identity of superiority that cannot exist, and this sets them into a perpetual identity crisis, an existential emergency that threatens who they are and who they think they want to be. The ensuing identity formation—white by force—comprises an entire set of strategies, tactics, ins…
Political Theory and the Animal/Human Relationship
Political theory and the animal/human relationship
"The division of life into animal and human is one of the fundamental schisms found within political societies. Ironically, given the immense influence of the animal/human divide, especially upon power dynamics, the discipline in charge of theorizing and studying pwoer--political science and theory--has had little to say about the animal/human. This book seeks to amend this vast oversight. Acknowledging the complexity of the changing differences …
Deliberate Silences
This article offers silences to make deliberative democracy more inclusive and diverse. Considering deliberation broadly as conversation, I advance the argument that silence may be the missing link in our democratic theories: that some silences are packed full of meaning, others can be used as temporary tactics for bringing more meaningful voices to the table, and that silent yielding is the most crucial practice for a robust democratic world. In…
Ignorance, Innocence, and Democratic Responsibility
In contemporary race politics, ignorance is often invoked by whites to refuse responsibility for offenses. This points to the tight configuration between knowledge and responsibility. Yet, in a sociopolitical context pervasively shaped by what Mills has identified as an “epistemology of ignorance,” this configuration fosters irresponsibility. Moreover, the technologies of the surveilling state perpetuate this, as they lead white citizens to “see”…
The Promise of Democratic Silences
Political scientists and theorists have generally approached silence in one of two broad ways. Some have envisioned silence as representing apathy, indifference, ignorance, or general acceptance of the status quo. Alternatively, others have theorized silence as evidence of the workings of power—the phenomenon of “being silenced.” Neither approach has explored the ways that silence might be mobilized and practiced democratically. Instead of organi…
