Precorporation And Overidentification In Mark Fisher’s Capitalist Realism
Main Article Content
Abstract
This study seeks to explore two fundamental concepts in Mark Fisher’s thought within the context of his analysis of capitalist realism: overidentification and precorporation. It begins by outlining Fredric Jameson’s theoretical developments concerning the notion of postmodernity. It then considers the conceptual advantages that capitalist realism holds over postmodernity when it comes to articulating a philosophical analysis of the present. The discussion proceeds by addressing the implications of overidentification in Mark Fisher’s philosophy. Finally, the paper explores the process of precorporation as a preventive modeling of desires.
