Abstract

In recent years, a new critical scholarship and movement organi-zation that is adopting the lens of logistics has emerged, marked by a profound interdisciplinarity. Powerful voices from a wide spectrum of radical theoretical and political commitments are delineating critical logistics as a field of vitality. This dialogue with Deborah Cowen sums up and expands some of the main interpretative lines of research and action in logistics by insisting on the ways that the revolution in logistics has reshaped work and the conditions of work for those in positions or occupations that may not seem immediately logistical, including quite centrally, in the production process, which Cowen suggests are inextricable from logistics today. However, logistics is a paradigm that cannot be reduced to the mode of production in a classical meaning. Logistics enables us to understand peculiar forms of racialization, social reproduction, and social difference, along with geopolitical dynamics. In fact, logistics is a specific character of contemporary forms of power, and struggles over logistics and its infrastructures are imperial and tied to conflicts over land and livelihoods in a much broader frame, as well as impossibly entangled, as they are all concerned with the power to define who or what moves, where, when, and how. Therefore, logistics can be framed as a complex and productive multifaceted lens through which a new critical comprehension of actual dynamics needs to be framed and deepened.

近年来,一个新的批判性学术和运动组织正在采用物流的镜头已经出现,其特点是深刻的跨学科。来自广泛的激进理论和政治承诺的有力声音正在将关键物流描绘为一个充满活力的领域。与黛博拉·考恩的对话总结并扩展了物流研究和行动的一些主要解释路线,坚持认为物流革命重塑了工作和工作条件的方式,这些工作或职业可能看起来不是直接的物流,包括相当集中的,在生产过程中,考恩认为这与今天的物流密不可分。然而,物流是一种范式,不能简化为经典意义上的生产方式。物流使我们能够理解种族化、社会再生产和社会差异的特殊形式,以及地缘政治动态。事实上,物流是当代权力形式的一个特征,围绕物流及其基础设施的斗争是帝国的,在更广泛的框架内与土地和生计的冲突联系在一起,而且不可思议地纠缠在一起,因为它们都与定义谁或什么移动、何时移动、如何移动的权力有关。因此,物流可以框架作为一个复杂的和富有成效的多方面的镜头,通过一个新的关键理解实际动态需要框架和深化。
