   * - On the edge of being human, when human being is barely bearable, Butler’s science fiction allows her to encounter the persistence of racism, colonialism and patriarchy in a highly technologized world with uncommon intimacy and emotional power.    * - On the edge of being human, when human being is barely bearable, Butler’s science fiction allows her to encounter the persistence of racism, colonialism and patriarchy in a highly technologized world with uncommon intimacy and emotional power.

   * From the Manifesto for Cyborgs to “Staying with the Trouble” Danna Haraway has expanded her explicitly socialist commitments to include all of life.

-  * 8. Synthesis II:  The Destruction of Reason - Gyorgy Lukacs+  * [[8_synthesis_ii_destruction_reason_gyorgy_lukacs|8. Synthesis II:  The Destruction of Reason - Gyorgy Lukacs]]
   * Rosa Luxemburgs warned that modernity will either progress to socialism or collapse into barbarism, is often repeated today. But what happens when elements of the struggle for socialism are reappropriated for Fascism.  In “the Destruction of Reason”, Lukacs discusses how many of the insights of Marxism, denatured of their revolutionary commitment become weapons for reaction. In the face of the deligitimisation of reason and a romantic return to mysticism and belief, he affirms a critical commitment to reason.    * Rosa Luxemburgs warned that modernity will either progress to socialism or collapse into barbarism, is often repeated today.
