The Engineer & the Artist: Negarastani vs. Land
Much has been made of the opposition between Reza Negarastani and Nick Land, between so-called neo-rationalism and libidinal materialism. For many however, the debate may come across as quite abstruse, especially with respect to Negarastani’s side, since his writings are less frequently discussed in the accelerosphere than those of Nick Land. In this post (owing much to an excellent review paper by Vincent Le), I intend to provide an easily digestible overview of the major points at which Land and Negarastani come to blows.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P2oabCllZ-M

"What does an esoteric concept like Calvinist soteriology have to do with the rise of modern economics? Does laissez-faire have its roots in the arcane Quinquarticular Controversy? Can one find the origins of the welfare state in postmillennialist eschatology?"
By former Harvard economics department chairman B.M. Friedman. Why theology? In terms of conceptual engineering, theology merges high-level abstractions (One, Being, Cause) with social values (Good, Just, Love). Agamben showed how the geneology of economy is interlinked with the metaphysics of salvation and grace (soteriology). This new book extends Weber's foundational work with new tools. Political Theology was created by Bakunin, not by Schmitt. Subverting theology is what all comrades do, consciously or unconsciously. To subvert theology is to subvert the transcendental conversion between One, Being, Cause, Good, Just, Love. Keep rolling comrades
