Dialogues among ‘necrolocutors’ and fugitives

Year: 2025
Type: editorial
Abstract: This exploratory commentary invites readers to situate ‘the necrolocutor’ in dialogue with ‘the fugitive’ – an agent uncovered by Fred Moten and Stephano Harney in The Undercommons: Fugitive Planning and Black Study (Harney and Moten, 2013). I aim to briefly examine how the necrolocutor not only administers power, knowledge, and death (in line with the ant logic carefully dissected by Gibson) but also co-produces multiple scales and modes of fugitivity, refusing to engage in participatory practices.
