For Postcapitalist Studies: Inheriting Futures of Space and Economy Alhojärvi — For Postcapitalist Studies: Inheriting Futures of Space and Economy Inheriting Futures Studies: Alhojärvi Postcapitalist — For 50:2 Tuomo Alhojärvi is a geographer immersed in postcapitalist praxis. In this study, he seeks to negotiate problematic legacies within the thinking of ‘other worlds’ by bringing together JK Gibson- Graham’s feminist economic geography and Jacques Derrida’s deconstructive philosophical practice. From this meeting emerges a fresh challenge for renegotiating the inherited futures of space and economy. Postcapitalism becomes a code word for trouble. In addition to thinking impossible things, Tuomo is keen on fathering, running and vermicomposting. nordia geographical publications 50:2 publications geographical nordia University of Oulu Graduate School For Postcapitalist Studies: Publication of The Geographical Society of Northern Finland & Inheriting Futures of Geography Research Unit at University of Oulu Space and Economy ISBN 978-952-62-2868-6 (print) ISBN 978-952-62-2869-3 (online) Tuomo Alhojärvi PunaMusta Oy 2021 nordia geographical publications volume 50 issue 2 For Postcapitalist Studies: Inheriting Futures of Space and Economy Tuomo Alhojärvi Academic dissertation to be presented with the permission of the Doctoral Training Committee for Human Sciences of the University of Oulu Graduate School (UniOGS) for public discussion in the lecture hall L10 on the 30th of March 2021 at 12.

..............................................................................................................................217 Abstract The worldwide social and ecological unravelling of the 21st century presents an unprecedented challenge for thinking and practising liveable economies. As life support systems are annihilated in view of the sustainable accumulation of capital, social and economic alternatives are rapidly emerging to shelter possibilities for life amidst the ruins. Postcapitalism has gained increasing attention as an invitation to amplify existing alternatives to systemic scale. The transformations required are the focus of social movements, political projects and academic research that demand the theorisation and organisation of alternatives to capitalist realism today. What has often received less attention is how such emancipatory alternatives are burdened with problematic legacies living on within, in the epistemic heritage enabling and organ- ising societal transformation. The ‘post-’ prefix, and the break from capitalism that it announces, has largely been treated as a given. This study resists such temptations of the affirmative in order to ask how restrictive and counterproductive burdens are carried along in emancipatory thought and practice, and how their continuous negotiation might have to redefine postcapitalism itself. Taking the ‘post-’ seriously demands critical and theoretical skills capable of examining the

  • Ontology: Early Derrida Reading Early Heidegger
    Jake Nabasny ‘Beyond or Within’ Ontology: Early Derrida Reading Early Heidegger 0. Abstract The publication of Jacques Derrida’s 1964–5 seminar on Martin Heidegger marks a significant event. In these lectures, Derrida puts forth a heterodox reading of the project of fundamental ontology, claiming it is not and never was an ontological or metaphysical enterprise. This reading was intended to rescue Heideggerian Destruktion from the metaphysical lens contemporary scholars had placed it under. While this seminar reveals important insights into the origins of Derridian deconstruction, this paper argues that it ultimately gets Heidegger wrong. From a close reading of the Introduction of Being and Time and proximate lecture courses, I argue that Heidegger’s fundamental ontology is indebted to a phenomenological method that is thoroughly and explicitly ontological. Apart from setting the record straight about Heidegger, I show that this interpretation of Destruktion is inconsistent with Derrida’s reading of Heidegger before and after these lectures were presented. I conclude by tracing this inconsistency throughout Derrida’s later work and considering why the 1964–5 interpretation stands out. Ultimately, this seminar should be read as a stage in the development of Derrida’s mature thought, specifically in regard to the notion of différance. ‘This is a retroactive justification because these themes are only implicit in Sein und Zeit.’ (Derrida 2016, 73) 1. Introduction As Jacques Derrida’s seminars continue to be edited, translated, and published, interest in his oeuvre is constantly renewed. The latest addition to this collection is the 1964–5 seminar Heidegger: The Question of Being and History.

  • Entrepreneurship Has Emerged As Theeconomic Engine and Social
    Volume 12 Issue 1 Version 1.0 January 2012 Type: Double Blind Peer Reviewed International Research Journal Publisher: Global Journals Inc. (USA) Online ISSN: & Print ISSN: Abstract - This paper consists of an introductory survey of two fundamental questions regarding the link between international entrepreneurship and economic growth. The first step in establishing the linkages requires the formulation of knowledge about the psychological make-up of entrepreneurs. The paper explains that Entrepreneurial activity breeds innovation, injects competitive pressures and develops opportunities in economies. It is the foundation in many respects for broader economic development. Entrepreneurship polices are equally important, as an engine of innovation, in developed countries as they are in developing or transition economies. The purpose of this paper is to explain why the model of the entrepreneurial economy maybe a better frame of reference than the model of the managed economy when explaining the role of entrepreneurship in the contemporary, developed economies. While borrowing constraints or other financial frictions affect entrepreneurship productivity and the distribution of income by restricting agents from profitable occupations that require capital, such as entrepreneurship, this paper is devoted to exploring issues aiming to increase national wealth and to improve international competitiveness of the national economy.

  • Jacques Derrida Law As Absolute Hospitality
    JACQUES DERRIDA LAW AS ABSOLUTE HOSPITALITY JACQUES DE VILLE NOMIKOI CRITICAL LEGAL THINKERS Jacques Derrida Jacques Derrida: Law as Absolute Hospitality presents a comprehensive account and understanding of Derrida’s approach to law and justice. Through a detailed reading of Derrida’s texts, Jacques de Ville contends that it is only by way of Derrida’s deconstruction of the metaphysics of presence, and specifi cally in relation to the texts of Husserl, Levinas, Freud and Heidegger, that the reasoning behind his elusive works on law and justice can be grasped. Through detailed readings of texts such as ‘To Speculate – on Freud’, Adieu, ‘Declarations of Independence’, ‘Before the Law’, ‘Cogito and the History of Madness’, Given Time, ‘Force of Law’ and Specters of Marx, de Ville contends that there is a continuity in Derrida’s thinking, and rejects the idea of an ‘ethical turn’. Derrida is shown to be neither a postmodernist nor a political liberal, but a radical revolutionary. De Ville also controversially contends that justice in Derrida’s thinking must be radically distinguished from Levinas’s refl ections on ‘the Other’. It is the notion of absolute hospitality – which Derrida derives from Levinas, but radically transforms – that provides the basis of this argument. Justice must, on de Ville’s reading, be understood in terms of a demand of absolute hospitality which is imposed on both the individual and the collective subject. A much needed account of Derrida’s infl uential approach to law, Jacques Derrida: Law as Absolute Hospitality will be an invaluable resource for those with an interest in legal theory, and for those with an interest in the ethics and politics of deconstruction.

    On Touching – The Inhuman That Therefore I Am (v1.1) Preliminary Note: This paper is Karen Barad a slightly revised version of the original paper “On Touching – The Inhuman that Therefore I Am,” which was published in differences 23:3 (2012, p. 206-223). That paper unfortunately included errors result- ing from a misreading my proof cor- rections. I am thankful that Susanne Witzgall and Kerstin Stakemeier has provided an opportunity for this arti- cle to be printed in its correct form. It also includes minor revisions to reset the introduction of the paper since it is now being published in a different forum and no longer intro- duces a journal special issue, which was the original context. 1 The title of my essay here expresses my virtual engagements and entanglements with Jacques Derrida. I am indebted to Astrid Schrader and Vicki Kirby for putting me in touch with Derrida through their marvellous materialist readings of his work. 2 Touch has been an object of study for centuries, going back at least to Aristotle’s momentous work on this topic. Part of what is at stake in this essay, is joining with other feminist and postcolonial theorists in troubling the notion of touch as an innocent form of engagement and also, by implication, troubling its positioning in the history of philosophy as a mutually consent- ing act between individuals, free When two hands touch, there is a sensuality of the flesh, an exchange of culture, history, and politics. of warmth, a feeling of pressure, of presence, a proximity of other- The literature on this is extensive.
