Artists, theorists, activists, and scholars propose concrete forms of nonfascist living as the rise of contemporary fascisms threatens the foundations of common life.Propositions for NonFascist Living begins from the urgent need to model a world decidedly void of fascisms during a time when the rise of contemporary fascisms threatens the very foundations of a possibility for common life. Borrowing from Michel Foucault's notion of nonfascist living as an art of living counter to all forms of fascism, including that in us all the fascism that causes us to love power, to desire the very thing that dominates and exploits us, the book addresses the practice of living rather than the mere object of life.Artists, theorists, activists, and scholars offer texts and visual essays that engage varied perspectives on practicing life and articulate methods that support multiplicity and difference rather than vaunting power and hierarchy. Architectural theorist Eyal Weizman, for example, describes an unlikely common in gathering evidence against false narratives; art historian and critic Sven Ltticken develops a nonfascist proposition drawn from the intersection of art, technology, and law; philosopher Rosi Braidotti explores an ethics of affirmation and the practices of dying.Propositions for NonFascist Living is the first in a BASICS series of readers from BAK, basis voor actuele kunst, Utrecht, engaging some of the most urgent problems of our time through theoretically informed and politically driven artistic research and practice.Contributors includeRosi Braidotti, Denise Ferreira da Silva, Jota Mombaa, and Thiago de Paula Souza, Forensic Architecture, Stefano Harney and Fred Moten, Patricia Kaersenhout and Luk Likavcan, Sven Ltticken, Jumana Manna, Dan McQuillan, Shela Sheikh, Eyal Weizman, Mick WilsonCopublished with BAK, basis voor actuele kunst
