The world has changed but the academy has not – debate is stagnant, a factory for students-as-calculators who uncritically defend American hegemony while ignoring the dark underside of their exceptionalism. Superficial debates over meaningless policy distract us from the pressing questions of our generation – how can we uncritically promote North American free trade without first interrogating the juridical foundations and political subjectivities that underpin the heart of the discussion. Instead of engaging, the activity violently expunges any unexpected or uncomfortable discussion, taking cover behind the façade of framework. These arguments deny the resolution its creative potential - at its heart, the topic is about our relationship to Cuba, Mexico and Venezuela, but debates this year will be no different than those that came before, built on the static pillars of environmental alarmism, terrorism, and unipolarity.

In doing so, we are seeking to explore how a properly political power relation can be reinstated from a relation of violence. According to Nietzsche, the "subject" is Socratic … deadly combination of desperate conforming and overreaching and untrammeled ressentiment paves the way for a new type of tyrant (Nietzsche 1986, pp. 137, 168; 1974, pp. 117-18, 213, 288-89, 303-4). | 4/19/14 |
