Mezzadra & Neilson, at pains to establish their 'border as method', protesting a little too much, labouring. (What is this embarrassment?) Whole introduction of the book. Their theoretical bolstering taken from Balibar, and Rada Ivekovic (partage de la raison); their care in PC terms and critical demarcations, not this, not that. In particular a point about putting ethnography in its own place, at arms length however recoursed to, and distanced by comparativism (my term, they are too careful for it), global perspective and work at global connections.
Trying to fray a way for a specific outlook and 'method' indeed: "Our perspective is thus very close to several projects of militant investigation that are currently developed by critical scholars and activists in many parts of the world."
This a new take of organic intellectual work (Gramsci), of Marxian transforming rather than describing, of activism and critique (70s). Temperature and jizz of critical activity now.
Matthieu Rigouste (piller l'université), Appadurai à Bombay même, collègue de Clemens à Chennai, etc. Richa Singh. Dalit scholars (not sure that is a same historical line).
Border intellectuals.
Régimes contemporains de la critique, leurs essayages.
