Beskrivning
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.

Recensioner i media

We admit that animals are sentient beings and that they have rights, but we always treat them as abstractions. Katerina Kolozova makes us understand that it is philosophy that induces this belief, because philosophy is a denial of animals as it has been a denial of women. Moreover, these denials are conditions of the closing of philosophical systems. Kolozova urges us to transform our conception of philosophy by relating it to new, more generous concepts of woman and animal.
