Description 1 online resource
Contents The physical and the automaton, introducing the radical dyad of the non-human -- Formalism of materialist reason -- Subjectivity as inherently philosophical entity and the third person's perspective -- Homologies and asymmetries between the automata of capital and patriarchy -- New political economy is possible only under the condition of abolishment of the metaphysics of animal-for-killing
Summary "Building on discussions originating in post-humanism, the non-philosophy of François Laruelle, and the science of 'species being of humanity' stemming from Marx's critique of philosophy, Katerina Kolozova proposes a radical consideration of capitalism's economic exploitation of life. This book uses François Laruelle's work to think through questions of 'practical ethics' and bring the abstract tools of Laruelle's non-philosophy into conversation with other critical methods in the humanities. Kolozova centres the question of the animal at the very heart of what it means for us as human beings to think and act in the world, and the mistreatment of animality that underpins the logic of capitalism"-- Provided by publisher
