NOOPOLITIK (1): Mental Warfare in the Global Economy (w/ Daniel Fraga & Owen Cox)

The next Philosophy Portal course focused on the Écrits starts September 3 2023: https://philosophyportal.online/ecrits

In this trialogue we attempt to introduce the notion of "Noopolitik" or "politics of the noosphere". In the 20th century, the birth of our global world was mediated by two mega powers and their economic methods (i.e. United States and capitalism (first world); Soviet Union and communism (second world)). The rest of the world was merely a battleground for these two major powers (third world). Today, after the fall of the second world and the establishment of capitalist hegemony (neoliberalism), we are entering a new phase that is difficult to define or comprehend. This new phase is not structured by one major country (United States), but the realm of international capital as embodied in new mega-informational-creatures that are not easy to classify or categorize as public or private bodies (e.g. Facebook, YouTube, Google, Amazon, Apple, etc.). Here, paradoxically, the entire human population is something like the "third world", and our own (libidinal) body-minds (qua attention) are the battleground. How to think this emerging global order and our role in its development?
