What I write instead is a meditation, a set of scattered thoughts, reflections on the usefulness of postcolonial theorizing in these times, and my own biography as a postcolonial subject and educator. If there is anyone who still resists the ideas of globalization, transnationalism, postcolonialism, and their implications for how we live with each other in the modern world, their implications for the taken-for-granted organizing categories such as nation, state, culture, identity, and Empire-the idea that we live in a deeply interconnected world in which centers and margins are unstable and are constantly being redefined, rearticulated, and reordered-then, such a person must have been awaken from his or her methodological slumber by the events of 9/11. The critical events of that day-the attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon and the crescendo of the fallout attendant to these extraordinary acts-threaten to consume us all. It is striking, in the language of Michael Hardt and Antonio Negri’s Empire (2000), how fragile modern forms of center-periphery arrangements of imperial rule are. It is striking-with the intensification of representational technologies,","PeriodicalId":46996,"journal":{"name":"Cultural Studies-Critical Methodologies","volume":"5 1","pages":"348 - 353"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2002-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90306137","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"George Bush, Apocalypse Sometime Soon, and the American Imperium","authors":"Peter McLaren","doi":"10.1177/153270860200200302","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1177/153270860200200302","url":null,"abstract":"Under the sign of the Stars and Stripes, the war against terrorism unchains the attack dogs of the New World Order in defense of civilization. In the pro- cess, the United States has crossed the threshold of militant authoritarianism and goose-stepped onto the global balcony of neofascism, befouling the Con- stitution along the way. As long as the nation keeps cheering, and Bush's impish jaw juts ever forward, the stench goes unnoticed. Among the Bush administration, there is a concerted effort to meld political rhetoric and apocalyptic discourse as part of a larger politics of fear and para- noia. Like a priest of the black arts, Bush has successfully disinterred the rem- nants of Ronald Reagan's millennarian rhetoric from the graveyard of chiliastic fantasies, appropriated it for his own interests, and played it in public like a charm. Self-fashioning one's image through the use of messianic and millenar- ian tropes works best on the intended audience (in this case, the American pub- lic) when the performance is disabused of shrillness, appears uncompromising, and remains unrestrained, confident, anagogic, and sometimes allegorical. Fas- cist plain speak is a discursive rendering that is straightforward and unapolo- getic and, like an iceberg, does most of the damage beneath the surface. Bush's handlers are masters of the fascist spin, and Bush is a perfect candidate because he hardly needs any ideological persuasion to get on board the fascist band- wagon. He is the perfect host for collapsing the distinction between religious authoritarianism and politics. Bush's defense of the war on terrorism works largely through archetypal association and operates in the crucible of the struc- tural unconscious. Bush may believe that Providence has assigned him the arduous yet glorious task of rescuing America from the satanic forces of evil, as if he, himself, were the embodiment of the generalized will and the unalloyed spirit of the American people. Evoking the role of the divine prophet who iden- tifies with the sword arm of divine retribution, Bush reveals the eschatological undertow to the war on terrorism, perhaps most evident in his totalizing and Manichean pronouncements where he likens bin Laden and his al Quaeda chthonic warriors to absolute evil and the United States to the apogee of free- dom and goodness.","PeriodicalId":46996,"journal":{"name":"Cultural Studies-Critical Methodologies","volume":"11 1","pages":"327 - 333"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2002-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73943524","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This \"biographizing\" movement is part of a broader picture of shifting configurations of concerns, concepts, and methodologies. In 2000, the introduction to the authors' The Turn to Biographical Methods in Social Science attempted such a picture. The authors wanted to promote greater mutual awareness and partnership between a \"German\" approach, seen as having a more explicit conceptual and methodological apparatus, and a \"British\" approach that had a greater concern for power relations around the interview relationship and in processing, interpreting, and reporting. In that text, cultural studies was relatively neglected and treated rather dismissively.
