Inventing Militant Scholarship for Political and Intellectual Emancipation: A Response to Mirka Koro’s Speculative Experimentation in (Methodological) Pluriverse

Abstract

There is an urgent need for militant scholarship as a methodological counterforce for the far-right populist and Manichean rhetorics and the ruthless economic order against the oppressed. We should not accept these provocations face value, but as militant scholars learn to conceptualize them as ideologies. As militants, we aim to overcome neoliberalism’s dominant discourse and resist predatory forms of capitalism by imagining the unimaginable. A militant wants to create discourse and action “that troubles the world.”
