Биокапитализъм и свят на живота (към феноменологическата критика на натуралистичните очевидности)
Biocapitalism and Life-World (Towards the Phenomenological Critique of Naturalistic Evidences)

Summary/Abstract: The article raises the problem of the naturalistic evidences that underlie supermodern biocapitalism, biotechnologies and biopower, and proposes phenomenological landmarks for their critique. The specifics of biocapitalism is traces in three dimensions: cleavage of the modern unity between work and life; extraction of ‘biologically gained time’ as a specificsurplus value; modal transformation of biopower in the formula ‘make survive or let live’. Parallel to that, the phenomenological destruction, respectively critique, is deployed of the capitalist ‘force for working’ (‘being-able-to-work’), following a line from what was unthinkable for Marks but is subject to thematization with Husserl – the generative time of the subjectively lived life and the kinaesthetic habitualization of the ‘being-able-to-work’. This unreifiable (and unconscious) bodily fundament introduces a structural indefiniteness into every capitalist socialization of the processing of natural and social processes.
