| description | This article approaches the latest work of Alberto Moreiras on infrapolitics
as self-conscious acts of writing which thinks its own conditions, or its
own contingent textual inscription. In this sense, I propose that we can
read this work as being informed by a question, even a preoccupation, over
what form or style of writing is appropriate to announce or re-veal the
existential dimensions proposed by the notion of infrapolitics. In exploring
three such untimely textual inscriptions, the article approaches the stakes
of what Moreiras thematises under the name of infrapolitics through how it
informs the performativity of Moreiras’s own writing practice, exploring in
the process the relationship that infrapolitics supposes to politics and to
a certain critique of late capitalism, as well as other important concepts
such as marranismo, the second turn of deconstruction, auto-graphic writing
and demetaphorisation, among others. |
