QUEER NIHILISM

I have written a new essay (an hour of your time) which discusses "queer nihilism" or an anti-politics (that is, something against the politics of this world) of wild desire.

It is from a work in progress which is focusing on "the wild" as an alternative to our civilisations of death and oppression, a theorisation of anarchy.

It will interest those who have an interest in an alternative politics - and an alternative to politics - queer theory, nihilism, anarchism and all anti-civilisationalists.

NEWLY PUBLISHED BOOK TO READ

My latest book - THE WILD - takes the view that "anarchy", often extrapolated in and through the historical, socially-derived politics of anarchism, should instead be characterized on a naturalistic and queer basis as "the wild" (in much the same way as Kropotkin observed nature and came up with the principle of "mutual aid" in fact).

Through thirteen chapters this idea is then teased out, explained and extrapolated as something both ethical and political that is contrary to patriarchal, capitalist, industrial and technological human civilization as it has developed.

As such, this book is both a call to the wild (and to the truth and reality of the wild) and to the assertion that in feralness there is an authenticity of the mutual co-existence of all things to be found.

The book can be downloaded FOR FREE from the link below in multiple formats or read online. It can also be read to you via text to speech on that page.
