  • Editorial Brendan Hokowhitu Voice and the Postmodern Condition
    EDITORIAL BRENDAN HOKOWHITU Voice and the Postmodern Condition “Subjectivity” and “voice” are inextricably tied. Indeed, as many of the contributors to this issue of Junctures: The Journal for Thematic Dialogue argue, voice is the expression of the subject. The modern Western conceptualisations of one’s voice, one’s voting rights, one’s right to communicate, one’s right to be heard, scream, laugh, burble, talk in one’s own language, one’s demand for self-determination, one’s right to be silent etc., describe products of the Enlightenment’s humanistic argument for individual freedom and expression. But is one’s right to an individual voice merely an illusion? Certainly Foucault’s “death of man” – where he claims that the humanist conception of “man” (as a self-contained rational agent) was the creation of a unique set of historical contingencies – would suggest accordingly that voice as “self-expression” of subjectivity is a mirage.1 Likewise, contributor Pat Hoffie’s thoughts on reality and representation in an “Age of Terror” problematises the notion of individual voice, especially in relation to the recently deceased Jean Baudrillard’s response to the events of 9/11 in Der Spiegel where he argued that globalisation has reduced everything into “a negotiable, quantifiable exchange value.”2 The central question here then is how voices emanate in the postmodern and postcolonial contexts? That is, how do voices resonate in conjunction with the purported “death of the subject”? Using a text for probing this question, I focus on Fredric Jameson’s primarily descriptive yet immensely influential and polemic essay Postmodernism, or, the Cultural Logic of Late Capitalism.3 In his essay, Jameson draws from the cultural fields of architecture, painting, film, literature and music to describe a “decentring of the subject”, which he believes was a result of an economic shift from modernism’s “imperialistic stage” to the postmodern conditions of “consumer” or “late” capitalism.
