The Case for Reduction book cover

The Case for Reduction


ed. by Christoph F. E. Holzhey and Jakob Schillinger
Cultural Inquiry, 25
ICI Berlin Press, 2022

Critical discourse hardly knows a more devastating charge against theories, technologies, or structures than that of being reductive. Yet, expansion and growth cannot fare any better today. This volume suspends anti-reductionist reflexes to focus on the experiences and practices of different kinds of reduction, their generative potentials, ethics, and politics. Can their violences be contained and their benefits transported to other contexts?

Errans

Going Astray, Being Adrift, Coming to Nothing

ed. by Christoph F. E. Holzhey and Arnd Wedemeyer
Cultural Inquiry, 24
ICI Berlin Press, 2022

The taste for a departure from progress and other teleologies, the fascination with disorder, unfocused modes of attention, or improvisational performances cut across wide swaths of scholarly and activist discourses, practices in the arts — yet also in business, warfare, and politics.

NEW SERIES

Anarchival Practices

The Clanwilliam Arts Project as Re-imagining Custodianship of the Past

by Carine Zaayman
Worlding Public Cultures, 1
ICI Berlin Press, 2023

Where is the past? It is not really behind us, but with us, constantly imagined and re-imagined in public discourse through historical narrations. Using the Clanwilliam Arts Project as a case study, this volume is founded on the ‘anarchive’, a conceptual constellation that positions the past in relation to the present, bringing into view strategies to facilitate remembering beyond the colonial archive.
