Progress stories ignore our vulnerability to Others. Thinking through self-containment (at any scale) - an essential element of progress literature - negates transformation through encounters and all patterns of confluence and influence. An alternative narrative could be to acknowledge a perpetual state of precarity. A precarious world is a world without progress teleology. Agnostic about where we're going, we might then look for what has been ignored by the current hegemonic story. We are surrounded by many world-making projects; human and not-human. And usually these overlap too. Instead of colonial histories, we must fill both history and future with these 'contamination traditions'. #vulnerability #theOthers #selfcontainment #progressteleology #transformationthroughencounters #TSING

the mother land overturned into terra nullius and capitalist periphery its assets singled out until no more can be extracted a colonial ruin its web of histories destroyed haunted by capitalist inventory #inventory #motherland #ruin #postcapitalism
