本文是关于那些在合法化和自我形成的新条件下生活的人对价值的激烈贬值的斗争,在这种情况下,自我被要求通过其对经济、象征、社会和文化资本的积累和投资来反复揭示其价值。它探讨了这种价值斗争是如何经历的:通过不公正的话语情感地感受到,知道并说出。利用一个小型研究项目,该项目使用英国新工党政府的尊重议程作为一种唤起性的手段来引发讨论,该论文详细介绍了那些被定位为已经处于主导象征边缘的人如何产生创造价值的替代方式,这些人被呈现为国家的“无用”主体而不是“价值主体”。它研究了不公正的经历如何产生情感反应,即“丑陋的感觉”。将这些“丑陋的感觉”转化为“只是说说”的表达,揭示了对价值的不同理解,对什么重要、什么重要的理解,是如何与占主导地位的象征一起产生影响和传播的。最让工人阶级感到愤怒的问题是,他们如何被定位、评判、指责并为他们无法控制的遗产——“出生的意外”——负责。他们敏锐地意识到,他们是如何不断地被评判和剥夺合法性的,而自私和贪婪等行为对其他人来说是如何合法的。本文展示了他们如何拒绝授权那些他们认为缺乏价值但有权威和有能力判断的人,并展示了阶级关系如何通过斗争来维持,不仅反对经济限制,而且反对不合理的判断和权威,争取有尊严的关系。本文揭示了本体论核心的一场斗争,展示了被诋毁者如何捍卫并使自己的生活变得宜居;这是当前紧缩政策的核心问题,对未来可能会产生更大的影响。
This paper is about the struggle for value by those who live intensified devaluation in the new conditions of legitimation and self-formation, by which the self is required to repeatedly reveal its value through its accrual and investment in economic, symbolic, social and cultural capitals. It explores how this value struggle is experienced: felt affectively, known and spoken through discourses of injustice. Drawing on a small research project, which uses the British New Labour government's Respect Agenda as an evocative device to provoke discussion, the paper details how those positioned as already marginal to the dominant symbolic, presented as 'useless' subjects rather than 'subjects of value' of the nation, generate alternative ways for making value. It examines how the experience of injustice generates affective responses expressed as 'ugly-feelings'. The conversion of these 'ugly feelings' into articulations of 'just-talk' reveals how different understandings of value, of what matters and what counts, come into effect and circulate alongside the dominant symbolic. The issue that most angered working-class respondents is how they are positioned, judged, blamed and held responsible for an inheritance over which they have no control, 'an accident of birth'. They were acutely aware of how they were constantly judged and de-legitimated and how practices such as selfishness and greed were legitimate for others. Showing how they refuse to authorize those they consider lacking in value but with authority and in a position to judge, the paper demonstrates how class relations are lived through a struggle, not only against economic limitation but a struggle against unjustifiable judgment and authority and for dignified relationality. The paper reveals a struggle at the very core of ontology, demonstrating how the denigrated defend and make their lives liveable; an issue at the heart of current austerity politics which may have increased significance for the future.
