Abstract

This essay opens the question of the political genesis of fractal topologies from monolithic fronts of power and privation. The political front can no longer be encapsulated as a continuous norm-provisioning ground. Emerging frontier zones of violence jettison anachronistic centralized fronts of law and procedure in their wake. The political frontier is exemplified by the current fusion of warfare and lawfare—the extrajudicial violence of racialized and militarized policing, the right to look and inspect and the murder and carceralization of minorities, migrants, and cognate others. Police power, as the surviving repository and legatee of the historical wreckage of sovereignties past, is the anarchy that has captured the state in the present.

前线、边疆、警察无政府状态与动摇者的团结

本文从权力和贫困的统一战线出发，探讨了分形拓扑的政治起源问题。政治战线不能再被概括为一个持续的规范供应基地。新兴的暴力前沿地区抛弃了不合时宜的法律和程序集中战线。当前战争和法律的融合体现了政治前沿——种族化和军事化警务的法外暴力、查看和检查的权利以及对少数民族、移民和同源他人的谋杀和尸体化。警察权力，作为过去主权历史残骸的幸存储存库和遗产，是目前占领国家的无政府状态。

期刊介绍： Public Culture is a peer-reviewed interdisciplinary journal of cultural studies, published three times a year—in January, May, and September. It is sponsored by the Department of Media, Culture, and Communication, NYU. A four-time CELJ award winner, Public Culture has been publishing field-defining ethnographies and analyses of the cultural politics of globalization for over thirty years. The journal provides a forum for the discussion of the places and occasions where cultural, social, and political differences emerge as public phenomena, manifested in everything from highly particular and localized events in popular or folk culture to global advertising, consumption, and information networks. Artists, activists, and scholars, both well-established and younger, from across the humanities and social sciences and around the world, present some of their most innovative and exciting work in the pages of Public Culture.
