There is even a kind of intellectual daring in his proposing internationalism as a defining concept for reckoning with peripheral literature, given that categories such as cosmopolitanism or globalization are far more apt to catch the attention of contemporary readers. Nonetheless, it is to the internationalist orientati…

Introduction
The introduction to this issue on intellectual labor investigates the terms on which intellectual work is conducted and theorized today. Refuting the idea that intellectual-as-immaterial labor constitutes a primary productive force in contemporary capitalism, we look instead to alternative and critical conceptions of intellectual work that have, in the present conjuncture, become dissenting accounts of value. At the same time, we note the extent …

Profane illuminations and the everyday
The historical movement of surrealism continues to influence contemporary theories of everyday life even if its project of bourgeois self-transformation proved to be an epochal failure. The melancholic subjectivity associated with surrealist experiments is often regarded as a form of resistance against objective conditions of capitalist domination. This essay looks at Walter Benjamin’s and Theodor Adorno’s arguments about surrealism’s radical att…
Cinema and Universality

Carnal Knowledge
Migrant identities
When I teach topics in third world literature, much time is lost in trying to explain that the third world is locatable only as a discourse of convenience. Trying to find it is like pretending that history or home is real and not located precisely where you're sitting, I hear my voice quite idiotically say. (Sara Suleri, Meatless Days 1989)
