FIGURES OF THE CRISIS: CITIES AND EDUCATION

ABSTRACT

Antonio Negri and Michael Hardt bring four figures of the economic-anthropological crisis: the indebted, the mediatized, the securitized and the represented to show subjectivity in the context of cognitive bio-capitalism. These typological figures are presented in the present text in order to show concrete effects of political education and urban dynamics, with an emphasis on the modern subjectification of cities. From what Deleuze and Guattari delineate as a “psychosocial type”, we bring the figure of the “speedy”, a figure transverse to all others, which shows the problem of the “race” by production and accelerated circulation in the contemporary world. And, on the obverse side, the accelerationist hypothesis of re-existence and other possible educational and urban configurations as immanent alternatives to velocization.
