Ever since neofascist movements began to surge across the globe, liberal commentators have tried to put a name to what they are defending from these illiberal ideologies. The consensus is reason or rationality—after the Second World War, mainstream scholarship has supported the view that adherence to fascism is a thing of unreason. This distinction between reason and unreason, a tenet of Enlightenment thought, sustains the universal appeal of liberal democracy but leaves unexamined the paradoxes that haunt modernity, particularly its colonial foundation, thus obscuring the continuities between fascism and imperial policies. The White West contends that, without confronting the structuring force of race in the production and reproduction of global wealth disparities, fighting for reason only leads to flawed utopias in which a critique or disruption of capitalism is easily inflected in the direction of neofascism. This collection of writing by leading historians, theorists, and scholars is an attempt to engage the overlaps between philosophical predicates and colonial legacies, as well as the undertheorized continuities between fascism and settler colonialism. The White West ~ Fascism, Unreason, and the Paradox of Modernity ~ EDITORS: KADER ATTIA, ANSELM FRANKE, and DAI's brilliant theory tutor ANA TEIXEIRA PINTO.

Do not miss out on this inspiriting exhibition at Rotterdam based project space "an other world" by dear alum Ulufer Çelik (DAI, 2018): 'Opiomarital'. It focuses on healing in the realm of an aching heart. By upcycling the residues of ceremonies, rituals, fights and habits of romance, work recalibrates the heartache in times of narcissistic nations. Through opium and henna plants’ guidance the artist explores the multilayered facets of pain, soothing and celebration. Finissage March 30, 2024.
