The environmentalist: What Is to Be Done
Contemporary American environmentalism emerged at a point in political history when indeterminacy, arguably, was on the rise after a long period of enforced consensus – in short, during the era of modernism's exhaustion. Environmentalists are awkward modernists. On one hand, most of them would surely resist the modernist label altogether. But in other ways, environmentalists doubled back, sometimes even epitomising the modernism they otherwise cr…

The Irrepressible Lightness and Joy of Being Green: Empire and Environmentalism
Empire has an odd concluding sentence. At the end of their 413 page reframing of the political, Hardt and Negri announce, “This is the irrepressible lightness and joy of being communist.” Perhaps this ending plays well in Europe. In the US, however, it falls flat, not least because of the pronounced anti-left sentiment that has only increased over the past decade. But what if we read this concluding sentence for its surprising “irrepressible ligh…

For would they but obey With understanding heart, from day to day Their life were full of blessing, but they turn Each to his sin, by folly led astray. Glory would some thro’ bitter strife attain And some are eager after lawless gain; Some lust for sensual delights, but each Finds that too soon his pleasure turns to pain. — Cleanthes t…

American Governmentality: Michel Foucault and Public Administration
The governing that now pervades the developed world is so omnipresent that it seems virtually natural. Administration-specific forms of rationality, authority, and participation-was, nonetheless, a development. French philosopher Michel Foucault argued that this development could be understood as governmentality"-a new arrangement among sovereignty, discipline, and government that made the art of governing both thinkable and practicable. This art…
Tales of Unity, Frustration, and Violence in These United States
“Tales of Unity, Frustration, and Violence in these United States” William Chaloupka (bio) united states. By Thomas L. Dumm. Ithaca: Cornell University Press, 1994. 235 pages. $39.95 (cloth), $16.95 (paper). At the beginning of each of Professor Newt Gingrich’s much ballyhooed history lectures—the partisan broadsides that threaten to define distance learning for a generation—there is this claim: The Central Proposition: There is an American Civil…
The County Supremacy and Militia Movements: Federalism as an Issue on the Radical Right
This article reviews two of the most visible forms of the populist right resurgence in American politics, the county rule and militia movements. Both of these efforts have phrased their claims in the terms of federalism, constitutionalism, and sovereign legitimacy—terms that have not often been so prominently identified with such radical organizing. The essay reviews the origins of both county rule and militia movements, as well as their activiti…

Cynical Nature: Politics and Culture after the Demise of the Natural
It is not surprising that 1992 the year cynicism entered the regular vocabulary of politics in the United States witnessed President Bush's embrace of a cynical and resentful politics of the environment. Bush himself is a cynic, Democrats explained; he is willing to do anything to get reelected. He was even willing to say that open, overdetermined cynic that he is. There is more: Bush was the first spy president, and every spy is cynical about th…

Immodest Modesty: Antinuclear Discourse, Lifestyle Politics, and Intervention Strategies
If, as Foucault argued, local and partial interventions now succeed more frequently than do global and ideological approaches, there would be implications even for such general topics as the citizen politics which surrounds foreign policy. One particular localist approach, the commitment to intensely private, personal (“lifestyle”) practices in the name of larger issues, partakes in the liberal tradition of extrapolating the self into politics, b…
