| Summary: | Post-Continental Queer TheoryIn an interview with Paul Ennis in Post-Continental Voices, Adrian Ivakhiv is asked about his opinion concerning the future of post-continental philoso-phy and he responds that:In an increasingly global context, I’m not sure if either ‘continental phi-losophy’ or “analytical philosophy” have much of a future except as car-riers of certain legacies; they’re carry-overs from a time when philosophy seemed exclusive to the North Atlantic world. In a globally mediated, technologically shaped world of shifting and intersecting biocultural contexts, philosophy will have to be more hybrid, viral, and shapeshifting if it’s to remain efficacious as a motivating and inspirational force for cos-mopolitical world-making – which, to my mind, is what lies ahead of us. |
