Por una política del final. Sobre la subjetividad proto-fascista y el pensamiento estratégico

This article proposes five «coordinates» through which to develop an alternative reading of the current consolidation of the «neoreactionary international», with particular emphasis on its micropolitical character. A transformation of subjectivity has enabled majorities across the globe to resonate with fascistoid rationalities and contribute to their democratic legitimation, or at least to their electoral victories. The specificity of the present moment also lies in the fact that the subjectivity required by the «neoreactionary» or «neo-fascist» turn has already been produced through the last fifty years of neoliberalism together with the last thirty years of digital development. This transformation takes place simultaneously with the reactivation of a foundational violence, whereas previous mutations of capitalist governmentality situated the production of subjectivity at a later stage. Such simultaneity is articulated through two dynamics specific to the neoreactionary, namely «subjective resonance» and «strategic consonance». As a response/resistance, the article proposes opting for a «politics of the end», which entails accepting that «there is no future» without falling into nihilism or indifference, and instead intervening in «tomorrow» as a strategic horizon.
