The Roots of 'Gender-Critical' Fascism: White Supremacy, Reactionary Feminism, and the Far Right

Following Dividuum (2015), Gerald Raunig presents the second volume of “Machinic Capitalism and Molecular Revolution.” Dissemblage unfolds a wild abundance of material of unruliness, from the multilingual translation machines of Al-Andalus to the queer mysticism of the High Middle Ages, from the small voices of the falsetto in 20th century jazz and soul to today’s disjointures and subjunctures against the smooth city in machinic capitalism. In this volume Gerald Raunig not only develops a co...

Jason Bahbek Mohaghegh joins us to discuss Omnicide 2, out soon from Urbanomic. From Urbanomic/MIT Press: An infernal catalogue of manic visionaries, inspired by the poetry of the Middle East.
