<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 10.0pt; line-height: 115%;">The following is from "Planetarity,"
Chapter Three of <i>Death of a Discipline</i> by Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak, published
in 2003 by the Columbia University Press and based on the Wellek Library
Lectures in Critical Theory she delivered in May 2000. The following excerpts amount
to just a few pages from a much longer text and are divided (by me) into numbered
theses -- most of them shorn from the context of specific close textual
readings that give them their specific vitality -- but each one of which
comments in this form on key themes from our course.<span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 10.0pt; line-height: 115%;">The meaning of the figure is undecidable, and yet we
must attempt to dis-figure it, read the logic of the metaphor. We know that the
figure can and will be literalized in yet other ways. All around us is the
clamor for the rational destruction of the figure, the demand for not clarity
but immediate comprehensibility by the ideological average. This destroys the
force of literature as a cultural good… [T]o learn to read is to learn to
dis-figure the undecidable figure into a responsible literality, again and
again. It is my belief that initiation into cultural explanation is… a training
in reading.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 10.0pt; line-height: 115%;">I propose the planet to overwrite the globe.
Globalization is the imposition of the same system of exchange everywhere. In
the gridwork of electronic capital, we achieve that abstract ball covered in
latitudes and longitudes, cut by virtual lines, once the equator and the
tropics and so on, now drawn by the requirements of Geographical Information
Systems. To talk planet-talk by way of unexamined environmentalism, referring to
an undivided "natural" space rather than a differentiated political
space, can work in the interest of this globalization… The globe is on our
computers. No one lives there. It allows us to think we can aim to control it.
The planet is in the species of alterity, belonging to another… and yet we
inhabit it, on loan…. When I invoke the planet I think of the effort required

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 10.0pt; line-height: 115%;">To be human is to be intended toward the other. W
provide for ourselves transcendental figurations of… this animating gift:
mother, nation, god, nature. These are names of alterity, some more radical
than others. Planet-thought opens up to embrace an inexhaustible taxonomy of
such names… If we imagine ourselves as… planetary creatures rather than global entities,
alterity remains underived from us; it is not our dialectical negation, it
contains us as much as it flings us away… We must persistently educate ourselves
into this peculiar mindset.</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 10.0pt; line-height: 115%;">One will have to look out for what Raymond Williams
calls the preemergent around the corner, suppressed by a specifically
metropolitan moment that emphasizes the uneven and asymmetrical global digital
divide. The "preemergent" leads us toward a "structure of
feeling." … But thinking of institutional attitudes to be fostered by pedagogy,
we do not need to tap those modes, we need only remember them. The altered
attitudes toward language learning, areas versus nation-states, figure versus
rational expectations… can no doubt be plotted as a "structure of feeling,"
if that is the language we prefer. The scenario that I am constructing would
suggest that the dominant figuring of "prehistory" as cyberpresent or
science fiction adventure would interfere with the emergence of the figuration
of an undecidable planetary alterity.</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 10.0pt; line-height: 115%;">The country… is not simply the prenational as
opposed to the national. It is also the… mass of the national, to which the
blood rushes first and that becomes continuous with the exchange of the Earth.
The Earth is the paranational image that can substitute for international and
can perhaps provide, today, a displaced site for the imagination of
planetarity. The choice of the blood rushing back as the first move, the
description of the rural as a specifically national mass, and the inclusion of
the trade-related word "redistribution" … seeks to undo the
contradiction between the national and the rural.</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 10.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Just as socialism at its best would persistently and
repeatedly wrench capital away frm capitalism, so must the new Comparative
Literature persistently and repeatedly undermine and undo the definitive tendency
of the dominant to appropriate the emergent… Training in such persistent and repetitive
gestures comes, necessarily, in the classroom… This is not an easy
"positional skepticism of postmodernist literary and cultural studies,"
but something to worked through in the interest of yoking the humanities,
however distantly, with however few guarantees, to a just world… If we want to
compete with the hard "science"(s) and the social sciences at their
hardest as "human science," we have already lost, as one loses
institutional competition. In the arena of humanities as the uncoercive rearrangement
of desire, he who wins loses.</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 10.0pt; line-height: 115%;">In this era of global capital triumphant, to keep
responsibility alive in the reading and teaching of the textual is at first
sight impractical. It is, however, the right of the textual to be so
responsible, responsive, answerable. The "planet" is, here, as
perhaps always, a catachresis for inscribing collective responsibility as
right. Its alterity, determining experience, is mysterious and discontinuous --
an experience of the impossible. It is such collectivities that must be opened
up with the question "How many are we?" when cultural origin is
detranscendentalized into fiction -- the toughest task in the diaspora.</span></div>

<h3 class="post-title entry-title" itemprop="name">
</h3>
<div class="post-header">
</div>
There are well over a hundred keywords listed below from among the many
more terms we have taken up and deployed over the course of our readings
and conversations this term. <br />
<br />
For your Final you are to create three categories entirely of your own choosing and
design (they can be conceptual,
practical, figurative, whatever works best for you), and then include under each of these categories a number of
keywords from the list below which seem to you to be related to one
another in a significant or useful way through each of your chosen
categories and in respect to your sense of the overall subject of our
course together.<br />
<br />
For each keyword you choose, provide a clear and concise definition of the term (nothing more than a sentence, at most two) <b>in your own words,</b>
and then follow that definition with a quotation from one of the
assigned texts from our syllabus. The quotation should be one that is
especially illuminating for the definition you have made in some way:
the quotation can be a definition that yours is a variation of, the
quotation can be an example or illustration that supports your
definition, the quotation can provide an analogy or figure or frame that
inspired your definition, the quotation can even be something that
seemed so wrong to you that it provoked your definition as a kind
of protest or intervention. <br />
<br />
Your final must provide definitions and quotations for at least
thirty-six keywords but no more than forty. None of your categories can
contain fewer than seven keywords and none can contain more than
sixteen keywords. <br />
<br />
Each of your categories should have a title and a general explanatory
paragraph (and I do mean a paragraph, not an essay) indicating what you mean for your category to delineate. <br />
<br />
The deadline for the final is our last class together. If you have time to get this done early rather than later, you should by all means do so. This is the sort of project that is very doable if you devote some time to it, but almost impossible if you try to do it at the last minute. You should give yourself several days
to do this work, since scouting through passages and notes across the
whole term often yields unexpected insights and shocks of recognition that lead to revisions of
your initial categorizations and keyword groupings. I hope this
exercise is an enlightening and enjoyable one for you all rather than a
drudgery. Be experimental, exploratory, earnest about it and you are
almost sure to get incomparably more benefit from it. The love you take is equal to the love you make, as it were.<br />
<br />
If you have questions, always feel free to post them in Comments, e-mail
them to me, raise them in class, or talk with me about them personally.<br />

<br />
The Goal: to strategize (safe) methods to sculpt plastic trash. This prototype will help us strategize for a larger project. We are asking for creative input through interaction with the armature installed in the corner of the courtyard. Artists can also help by so adding their own plastic waste.<br />
<br />
Final Project Summary: With the support of the Davis Projects for Peace Grant, we will partner with Agung Bali Children’s Foundation (ABC Foundation) to teach elementary school children and their families about ecological stewardship through collaborative art projects utilizing trash collected from their local environment. We will also work with ABC Foundation co-director Darren Leaver to develop a recycling plan to reduce improper waste disposal, helping to promote peaceful relations between neighboring rural villages that are in conflict over downstream pollution.<br />

Concluding remarks and discussion.<br />
<br />
GENERAL OBJECTIVES:<br />
<br />
1. Interrogate the discourses of "nature," as registers of materiality, worldliness, scientificity, wilderness, sublimity, insecurity, grace, and consider the ways in which these different (sometimes outright contradictory) registers function in argument and in identification as supplements, complements, resolutions, dissolutions, contraries, paradoxes, and so on.<br />
<br />
2. Survey a host of "green" discourses, from transcendentalism, deep ecology, social ecology, urban gardening and green cities, permaculture, to eco-feminism, eco-socialism, environmental justice critique, natural capitalism, anti-civilizational discourse and anarcho-luddism -- identify both continuities and discontinuities in their assumptions, aspirations, figurations, frames, gestures. <br />
<br />
3. Consider "environmentalisms" as more than argumentative claims, but as sites of subculture and style, identification and dis-identification, practices of education, agitation, and organization stratified by race, sex-gender, class, nationality.<br />
<br />
4. Treat "greenness" as a site through which to think more generally about relations of theory and practice, political engagement, critical thinking, and art practices, as well as to think about political engagement and efficacy under contemporary conditions.<br />
<br />
5. Acquaint students with hundreds of "Keywords" connected to various Green practices, theories, communities, strategies (eg, abrasion, biomimesis, cradle-to-cradle, downcycling, externality, financialization, greenwashing, etc.).<br />
<br />
6. Embed these discourses within an STS (science and technology studies) framework, emphasizing publicity/historicity of objects/subjects, actor-network formulations of actant/associate agency, and strong critique (via Arendt, Latour, and Haraway) of triumphalist-emancipatory narratives of technoscientific-sociopolitical progress.</div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">In
1972, an image of the whole earth as seen from space circulated across the
whole earth. Has a planetary perspective different from the parochialisms,
imperialisms, and globalizations that still beset our politics emerged as a
possibility as that whole earth has become one of the mostly widely distributed
images in history? Just how are the politics of catastrophic climate change and
resource descent exacerbated by planetary networks, planetary migrations,
planetary exploitation, and planetary governance? What are the differences
within the planetary frame between environmentalisms as sites of
identification, as subcultures, as movements, as political programs, as
research programs, and as rhetorical perspectives? How has Green education, agitation,
organization, and consciousness changed over time and in what ways does
Greenness abide for earthlings like us? We will read a number of canonical and
representative environmentalist discourses and vantages-from transcendentalism
and deep ecology to eco-feminism, eco-socialism, and environmental justice
critique; from permaculture and mindful eating to futurological geo-engineering
and corporate-military greenwashing-seeking to understand better how to read
and write and make the planet Greenly. Tracking through these texts each of us
will struggle to weave together and testify to our own sense of the planetary
as an interpretive register, as a critical perspective, as a writerly
skill-set, as a site of imaginative investment, and as a provocation to collective
action and personal transformation.</span></div>
