It will contain 160 different panels, representing the variety in substantive focus and method that has become a hallmark of our discipline. Its almost 900 panelists will come from virtually every American state and a few foreign nations, from large universities as well as small colleges, from academic institutions and nonacademic research and policy positions to which political scientists have increasingly been drawn in recent decades. This rich diversity in panelists is more evidence that the Midwest Meetings have outgrown their original roots. Midwestern in name only, they have become important national meetings for political scientists. Diversity also is reflected in the theme of the 1991 Annual Meeting, "The Interdisciplinary Foundations of Political Science." Our discipline has drawn in significant ways on other disciplines (biology, economics, history, linguistics, psychology, sociology, just to name a few) for both theory and method. The interdisciplinary theme is designed to acknowledge these contributions and to examine their importance -- past, present, and future -- to political science. This theme is expressed in substantive panels scattered throughout the program. The principal vehicle for expressing this theme, though, is a plenary session to be held on Thursday, April 18, at 8:30 p.m. Entitled "The Interdisciplinary Foundations of Political Science," this session will bring together, in roundtable format, four prominent political scientists

  • Agger Triplec Ed1
    tripleC 11(2): 575-580, 2013 http://www.triple-c.at All that is Solid: Writing, Reading and Publishing in Post- modern Capitalism Ben Agger* and Timothy W. Luke** * University of Texas at Arlington, [email protected] ** Virginia Tech, [email protected] Abstract: This paper is a reflection on the publication practice of the journal Fast Capitalism, an open- source, electronic journal established by Ben Agger and Timothy Luke in 2005. It also presents thoughts on writing, reading and publishing in postmodern capitalism. Keywords: publishing, open access, Fast Capitalism, postmodern capitalism 1. “Fast Capitalism” The decision to start Fast Capitalism, an open-source, electronic journal found at www.fastcapitalism.com came out of rejection and frustration. First, Agger’s rejection after he had applied for the editorship of the official American Sociological Association journal, Socio- logical Theory, only to be rejected. Agger never thought he would easily get that editorship, given the interdisciplinary and critical nature of his work in a field that is increasingly formalis- tic and/or fragmented. Yet, as the adage goes, you definitely will be rejected if you not apply! To be sure, Agger was hesitant about the whole thing because whatever innovative impulse he sought to bring to the subfield would have been highly constrained by institutional and disciplinary constraints ranging from the guild-driven games of double-bind peer review to the disciplinary infatuations with the latest conceptual crazes that are all too often resurrected, revitalized, and then rehashed revisitations of stale theoretical debates. The recent “redis- coveries” of Leninism, Marxism or other orthodox communists as the Great Recession tapers off is but one case in point.

  • An Eco-Governmental Critique of the Deepwater Horizon Disaster
    Governing Nature, Sustaining Degradation: An Eco-Governmental Critique of the Deepwater Horizon Disaster Jennifer Leigh Lawrence Dissertation submitted to the faculty of the Virginia Polytechnic Institute & State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy In Social, Political, Ethical, and Cultural Thought Timothy W. Luke, Chair François Debrix, Co-Chair Ann Laberge Bruce Hull August 7, 2015 Blacksburg, Virginia Keywords: Deepwater Horizon, eco-governmentality; environmental disaster, hydrocarbon capitalism, manufactured risk © Copyright 2015 Governing Nature, Sustaining Degradation: An Eco-Governmental Critique of the Deepwater Horizon Disaster Jennifer Leigh Lawrence ABSTRACT This dissertation explores the discursive production of, and response to, environmental disaster. The project is contextualized through the case of the 2010 Deepwater Horizon disaster in the Gulf of Mexico. By interrupting traditional perceptions of environmental disaster, this project frames socio-environmental disasters as a normal and increasingly experienced part of global hydrocarbon capitalism. The project purports that disaster is embedded within the current global economy and the high-modernist ideologies that underlie it. As such, the strategies and techniques employed to respond to environmental disaster are intimately bound up within the same systemic processes that have created them in the first place. Moreover, because instrumentalist responses are quickly employed to mitigate disaster, the systemic factors productive of disaster remain concealed. Environmental disaster is thus a process of hydrocarbon capitalism rather than a product of it; as such it can, among other categories, be understood as manageable, profitable, and litigable. This research also highlights the normalization of chronic socio- environmental disaster though sensationalistic perspectives on acute disaster.

  • Rethinking Geopolitics
    RETHINKING GEOPOLITICS Cold War geopolitics may be dead, but struggles over space and power are more important than ever in a world of globalizing economies and instantaneous information. Using insights from contemporary cultural theory, the contributors address questions of political identity and popular culture, state violence and genocide, speed machines and militarism, gender and resistance, cyberwar and mass media – connecting each question to a generalized rethinking of the spaces of politics at the global scale. Rethinking Geopolitics argues that the concept of geopolitics needs to be conceptualized anew as the twenty-first century approaches. Critical geopolitics has emerged from the work of a number of scholars in the fields of geography and international relations who, over the last decade, have sought to investigate geopolitics as a cultural and political practice, rather than as a manifest reality of world politics. Challenging conventional geopolitical assumptions, the diverse chapters include analyses of: postmodern geopolitics, historical formulations of states and cold wars, the geopolitics of the Holocaust, the gendered dimension of Kurdish insurgency, political cartoons concerning Bosnia, representations of the Persian Gulf, the Zapatistas cyberpolitics, conflict simulations in the US military, and the emergence of a new geopolitics of global security. Exploring how popular cultural assumptions about geography and politics constitute the discourses of contemporary violence and political economy, Rethinking Geopolitics

  • Crisis Thought Edwin Kent Morris
    Crisis Thought Edwin Kent Morris Dissertation submitted to the faculty of the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy In Social, Political, Ethical, and Cultural Thought Francois Debrix, Chair Timothy W. Luke Scott G. Nelson Patricia M. Nickel September 12, 2016 Blacksburg, VA Keywords: crisis, crisis thought, politics, media, security Crisis Thought Edwin Kent Morris ABSTRACT Crisis thought is an idea that gives a name to and accounts for some of the problematics of the sign ‘crisis’ in political, social, cultural, and economic discourse. Specifically, crisis thought is a discursive formation, a concept used loosely here to refer to an assemblage of signs such as ‘anxiety’ or ‘fear’ that evoke or invoke similar, but inaccurate connotations as ‘crisis’ in political and everyday usage. The general question this study grapples with is why political, social, cultural, and economic ‘crises’ are often recognized and, yet, are seemingly unrecognized, unaddressed, or accepted as a basic part of political and ordinary life. This study focuses on the mobilization of crisis thought by the 24/7 news media and throughout politics in the United States. Working outside of economic and Marxist traditions of crisis studies, this study focuses on the effects of crisis thought by way of a critical, interpretive, and interdisciplinary approach. There are two goals of this project. The first is to offer some of the linkages between crisis thought, security, and liberalism. The second goal is to examine through various examples and vignettes how, where, and why crisis thought manifests itself in US politics and in ordinary life.
