Abstract
Is evil an ineradicable part of being, or something contingently determined by external forces? This is an old question which one can safely assume to have been unsolved by endless philosophical and theological debates. In particular, the Holocaust brought home the urgent need to ponder such issues to come to grips with problems of freedom and responsibility— if an ethical act must be a free act, then how can we hold those who kill while following orders? This project will examine recent debates (centered on Kant’s concept of “radical evil”) as a source of insight in the search for a theory of political action which will enable marginalized subjects to better deal with violence, repression, and other traumatic experiences in the ongoing reconstruction of subaltern history and repressed memory. Using Hannah Arendt’s works as a convenient focal point, a review of relevant positions will be undertaken, and Lacan’s rethinking of the Cartesian cogito in Seminar XI as well as the account of the “ethics of psychoanalysis” from the position of the real in Seminar VII will provide further theoretical grounding to develop an understanding of relevant issues, especially the connection of evil with enlightenment, the cogito, and the distinction (or the possible collapse thereof) between the body and the symbolic. Ultimately our findings should point what Walter Benjamin calls a “politicization of aesthetics.” Beyond a review of scholarship and an attempt at theoretical generalization, the project will also develop what I proposed in a recent paper as the “collapse of differentials” in the newest phase of postmodernity. It will be my major concern that the thinking of evil and the real should be done in full cognizance of such postmodern vicissitudes (globalization, the emergence of risk society, etc.) so as to engage fruitfully with contemporary aesthetic analysis. It will be shown that such rethinking is indispensable in the representation of the marginal.
