最近令人信服的学术著作探讨了影响,情绪和感觉可能在激活激进的社会和政治变革中发挥的关键作用。然而,我认为,一些“情感革命”的叙述实际上可能更多地模糊了我们对物质关系和惯例的理解,而不是丰富我们对物质关系和惯例的理解,在特定的背景下,“渐进”的变化可能会发生并持续下去,同时回避了如何在当前的社会政治和经济环境中评估进步本身的挑战。借鉴Eve Sedgwick、John Dewey、Felix Ravaisson等人的研究成果,本文探讨了对习惯的批判性研究是否能为理解当代社会转型的伦理和物质复杂性提供不同的、潜在的生成性分析工具。我认为,它的习惯的双重性质-它使强迫性重复和创造性的成为-这使得它成为一个丰富的概念,用于解决有害的社会政治模式的倾向,面对努力提高人们对其破坏性影响的认识,以及有意义的社会转型可能依赖的自动化和协调的物质形式。我还探讨了如何将影响和习惯结合在一起可能会有效地重新塑造我们对“现在”和“社会进步”的理解,以及感知,煽动和应对变化的可用模式。在谈到习惯时,本文的主要目的是考察社会和文化理论如何批判性地重新审视当今的社会变革和进步政治。
Compelling recent scholarly work has explored the crucial role affect, emotion and feeling might play in activating radical social and political change. I argue, however, that some narratives of ‘affective revolution’ may actually do more to obscure than to enrich our understanding of the material relations and routines though which ‘progressive’ change might occur and endure in a given context – while side-stepping the challenge of how to evaluate progress itself in the current socio-political and economic landscape. Drawing on the work of Eve Sedgwick, John Dewey, Felix Ravaisson and others, this article asks whether critical work on habit can provide different, and potentially generative, analytical tools for understanding the contemporary ethical and material complexities of social transformation. I suggest that it habit’s double nature – its enabling of both compulsive repetition and creative becoming – that makes it a rich concept for addressing the propensity of harmful socio-political patterns to persist in the face of efforts to generate greater awareness of their damaging effects, as well as the material forms of automation and coordination on which meaningful societal transformation may depend. I also explore how bringing affect and habit together might productively refigure our understandings of ‘the present’ and ‘social progress’, as well as the available modes of sensing, instigating and responding to change. In turning to habit, then, the primary aim of this article is to examine how social and cultural theory might critically re-approach social change and progressive politics today.
