概述
這門課的設計主旨在於和學生一起探討不同形式的邊界政治,以及這些邊界政治如何透過不同歷史脈絡的論述建構與體制操作而固定下來。 本門課將略分為兩大部分: 第一部分著重於邊界政治與論述構成的基本理論層面,我們將從佛洛伊德、拉岡、洪席耶、阿圖塞、阿岡本等人的著作中,思考劃分我他的運作邏輯,以及這些邊界如何透過論述政治,在不同文化與不同社會中,構成各種民間心態與大眾共識,而造成我們所關注的問題,包括我他區隔、理性的計算、法的暴力、國家機器、意識形態等問題。 第二部分將著重於邊界政治的全球脈絡,尤其是新殖民主義,全球物流,種族政治,在地機構化縫合,以及對於當地社會的衝擊。我們將閱讀傅柯、法農、大衛·哈維、漢娜‧鄂蘭、米尼奧羅等人的著作,探討殖民性的歷史因素、種族主義、地緣政治、邊界複數化、全球物流、咽喉點、一帶一路、新帝國主義、新殖民主義,以及解殖方案等問題。 我們將將根據修課同學的需求,分別探討可以凸顯個別議題的例子,例如紀錄片、影片、政治論述、公民政治、物流學的特殊經濟區、移民與難民議題等。我們歡迎不同背景的同學參與課堂,討論台灣、大陸、香港、東南亞、 南亞、中東以及非洲等地區的例子。我希望這門課可以協助同學們完成自己所思考的問題或是正在進行的研究計畫。 This course aims to study different forms of border politics and their discursive formation in different historical contexts. This course will be composed of two parts. In the first part, we will focus on the theoretical considerations on the questions of border politics and discursive formation. We select texts from Freud, Lacan, Althusser, Ranciere, Agamben, and discuss the fundamental theoretical questions of the partition of We group and Them group, the justification of the count of the part and non-part, the violence of law, state apparatus, and ideology. In the second part, we will focus on the global context of border politics in contemporary societies, particularly the rise of new colonialism, new racism, global logistics, and local infrastructure. We select texts from Foucault, Fanon, Sandro Mezzadra, Brett Neilson, David Harvey, Hanna Arendt, Walter Mignolo, and look into questions of the historical factors and the contemporary geopolitics, such as BRI and its impact on local societies. We will end our discussion on the potential project of decolonization in our time. This class will incorporate participants’ projects and work on various issues related to the questions on border politics, unequal citizens, discursive formation. We welcome recommendations of examples of documentaries, films, art exhibitions, literature, political debates, citizenship politics, the logistics of Special Economic Zones, migrant workers and refugees. We will try to include cases from Taiwan, China, Hong Kong, Northeast Asia, Southeast Asia, Central Asia, Middle East, and Africa, depending on the need of the participants in this class. The objective of this course is to assist students to think through their problematics and conduct their project.

A Set of Relations_Belledent Céline (Jean Monnet University – Centre Max Weber.)/English Lecture series Behind train journeys and their contemplative representations of the movement in literature and cinema, we find a set of relations affecting the space and the people traveling. In the 19th century in France, railways have been a colossal project to “implement progress and development” all over the colonial empire and its metropolis. This means of transportation is, from its starts until now, entangled between apparently contradictory governmentalities as public service and private profits. Furthermore, trains themselves can also be described as “intense spaces of transitory sociality” (Sara Ahmed, The Cultural Politics of Emotion, 2014, p. 215). In this speech, I propose to map this set of relations based on discourse analysis, observations, and interviews I conducted on a particular local train line in between Saint-Etienne and Lyon. Biography: Celine Belledent is an associate researcher in the sociology research department Max Weber (section Public Cultures) in Saint-Etienne (France). Her researches intend to map hegemonic and minoritarian relations of the contemporary, at a local and global level. Her PhD dissertation explored the links between sexuality and civilization concerns. She actually studies a local train line between Saint-Etienne and Lyon. She teaches in the educational sciences and sociology departments of the University Jean Monnet as well as in a social workers school. |

Lecture: 3:00~5:30 by Mikkel Bolt Rasmussen Title: Insolvency --The avant-garde after the end of modernism and the end of the working class movement in the West Within art historical scholarship it is customary to argue that the avant-garde disappeared with World War Two or at the latest in the 1960s. As Rosalind Krauss writes in her influential essay “The Originality of the Avant-Garde”: “The historical period that the avant-garde shared with modernism is over.” I will engage in a critical re-reading of the notion of the avant-garde in art and propose a new, historical materialist reading of the disappearance of the avant-garde. *** Mikkel Bolt Rasmussen 介紹 Mikkel Bolt Rasmussen is a professor at the Department of Arts and Cultural Studies, University of Copenhagen. He has published Crisis to Insurrection (Minor Compositions, 2015), Hegel after Occupy (Sternberg Press, 2018), After the Great Refusal: Essays on Contemporary Art, its Contradictions and Difficulties (Zero Books, 2018) and Trump’s Counter-Revolution (Zero Books, 2018) and a number of books in Danish. He has published articles about anti-capitalist activism, the revolutionary tradition, and the Situationist International. Mikkel Bolt Rasmussen 是丹麥哥本哈根大學藝術與文化研究系所教授,他是丹麥年輕一代的藝術史與政治理論批判學者,專研前衛藝術的政治性與歷史。同時深入研究反資本主義的激進理論、傳統革命、情境主義國際(Situationist International),並發表相關論文。Mikkel Bolt Rasmussen目前已有七本重要著作,其中五本為英文著作。 Mikkel Bolt Rasmussen 最新著作Trump’s Counter-Revolution (Zero Books, 2018)受到重視,他分析美國總統川普的權力行使以凸顯新法西斯類型的構成,他認為晚近的法西斯資本主義阻礙所有的社會變革。川普則投射出一種美國威脅的影像,但卻足以重建一個由白種人與父權宰制的團結社群。根據Mikkel Bolt Rasmussen ,在四十年毫無節制的社會不平等發展後,川普的權力行使正是以如此的法西斯資本主義介入普羅文化與極端國族主義之間,其目的在重建昔日白人勞動階級與有恆產者聯盟的新關係,並用以阻擾Occupy運動與Black Lives Matter的聯盟建構。 |
