摘要

本文试图在印度的背景下反思新冠肺炎疫情及其不同的影响(能力)。新型冠状病毒在印度爆发后,政府采取了一系列限制措施,包括隔离、封锁、自我隔离和自我监测,以遏制新型病毒的快速传播。这篇文章认为,疫情给整个世界带来了“历史性的断裂”,并试图研究它是如何影响印度边缘化人群的“正常”生活方式的,包括移民劳工如何努力接受疫情的可怕后果。此外,本文还重点讨论了某些政府措施是如何实施的,以检查新冠肺炎的影响(能力)。为了阐述这些情感(能力),我们得出了一些批判性的哲学观点。在开篇部分,阐述了疾病的生物哲学细微差别。接下来,在第二节中,将讨论这些影响(能力)的神经经济学方面。在第三节中,通过大陆哲学考察了潜在性、奇异性和跨政治性的理论概念。最后,在新冠肺炎疫情的影响(能力)背景下,批判性地阐明了印度背景的特殊性。

Making Sense of Pandemic COVID-19 and its Affect(abilities) in the Indian Context
This article seeks to reflect on pandemic COVID-­19 and its diverse affect(abilities) in the context of India. After the outbreak of the novel coronavirus in India, the government resorted to a number of restrictive measures including quarantine, lockdown, self-­isolation, and self-­monitoring in order to contain the rapid spread of the new virus. This article argues that the pandemic has rendered “historical ruptures” to the world at large, and seeks to examine how it has affected the ‘usual’ ways of living of marginalised people in India, including how migrant labourers have had to strive to come to terms with the dreadful consequences of the pandemic. Furthermore, this article puts into focus how certain governmental measures are brought into effect to check the affect(abilities) of COVID-­19. In order to elaborate on these affect(abilities) certain critical philosophical standpoints are drawn. In the opening section, bio-­philosophical nuances of illness are expounded. These are followed, in the second section, by a discussion of neuroeconomical aspects of these affect(abilities). In the third section, theoretical notions of potentiality, singularity, and transpolitical becomings are examined through Continental philosophies. Finally, particularities of the Indian context are critically elucidated in the context of affect(abilities) of pandemic COVID-­19.
