Feminist Standpoints and Critical Realism. The Contested Materiality of Difference in Intersectionality and New Materialism
Feminist theory and critical realism should consolidate their collaboration since they have much in common. Nevertheless, feminist standpoint theory and critical realist ontology remain at odds, as extended debates have shown. I argue that this is because of the importance that feminism places on difference – which brings up the problem of relationality in a material way – and thus makes it hard to integrate into traditional critical realism. Dia…
Negative Dialektik oder Dialektik der Absenz
Elmar Flatschart thematisiert die dialektische Revision von Roy Bhaskars epistemologischer Theorie eines kritischen Realismus. Er macht deutlich, dass Bhaskars Dialektik-Konzept den kritischen Realismus auf einen falschen Weg bringt, indem er die ontologischen Erschleichungen in Bhaskars ontologischem Konzept der »Absenz« einer analytischen Kritik unterzieht. Wenn die »Schnittstelle von kritischer Gesellschaftstheorie und (Wissenschafts-)Philosop…
Critical Realist Critical Discourse Analysis
This article discusses the metatheoretical foundations of a critical realist approach to critical discourse analysis and counterposes them to insufficiently realist tendencies in Norman Fairclough's critical discourse analysis (CDA), on the one hand, and anti-realist post-Marxist discourse theory on the other. The first section argues that Fairclough's approach is progressive in many ways, but lacks metatheoretical rigour with respect to importan…
The commodity and its Other
This article seeks to explore the depths of a Marxian critique of the commodity, building on both older and newer discussions. The starting point of this inquiry is the empirical status quo of ‘postmodern capitalism’, which is often interpreted in a culturalistic way, criticizing its consumerist, imaginary appearance. Against this, a renewed reading of Marx's own writings is upheld. Further elaborating on this, the respective neo-Marxist accounts…
Everyday Life and the State, Peter Bratsis, Boulder
The present review essay discusses Peter Bratsis’s work Everyday Life and the State (2006). It is argued that Bratsis produces a sound contribution to the on-going debate on state theory, which has its particular strengths in the innovative treatment of the public-private divide and an elaborate critique of fetishistic and ideological relations in the field of the political. In this, Bratsis builds on a broad range of structuralist, poststructura…
