  1. The Speculative Turn: Continental Materialism and Realism.Levi R. Bryant, Nick Srnicek & Graham Harman - 2011 - re.press.
    Continental philosophy has entered a new period of ferment. The long deconstructionist era was followed with a period dominated by Deleuze, which has in turn evolved into a new situation still difficult to define. However, one common thread running through the new brand of continental positions is a renewed attention to materialist and realist options in philosophy. Among the leaders of the established generation, this new focus takes numerous forms. It might be hard to find many shared positions in the (...)

  2. #Accelerate manifesto for an accelerationist politics.Alex Williams & Nick Srnicek - forthcoming - Rhuthmos.
    This text was first published on Critical Legal Thinking 14 May 2013. Accel­er­a­tion­ism pushes towards a future that is more mod­ern, an altern­at­ive mod­ern­ity that neo­lib­er­al­ism is inher­ently unable to gen­er­ate. 01. INTRODUCTION : On the Conjuncture 1. At the beginning of the second decade of the Twenty-First Century, global civilization faces a new breed of cataclysm. These coming apocalypses ridicule the norms and organisational structures of the politics which were forged in the birth - Débats.

    Imaginaires post-travail.Nick Srnicek, Alex Williams & Christophe Degoutin - 2016 - Multitudes 63 (2):39-50.
    La gauche devrait se mobiliser autour d’un consensus sur le post-travail. Cela lui permettrait de viser non seulement des gains appréciables – tels que la réduction de la corvée et de la pauvreté – mais aussi la construction, chemin faisant, d’une puissance politique. Cela implique au moins trois revendications : l’automation aussi complète que possible, une réduction du temps de travail sans réduction des salaires et l’instauration d’un revenu de base universel.

    The eyes of the state: how central banks think.Nick Srnicek - 2019 - AI and Society 34 (4):847-856.
    In November 2015, after weeks of bitter political rhetoric and much discussion about the consequences of the proposed changes, the UK Tory government reversed their decision to eliminate tax credits for the poorest. While much was made of this reversal, particularly who deserved responsibility for the change, a more subtle politics was going on behind the scenes. The primary justification for the reversal, given by the Chancellor George Osborne, was that tax revenues in forthcoming years were now expected to be (...)

    (1 other version)What is to be Done?Nick Srnicek - 2008 - Symposium 12 (2):110-126.
    While Alain Badiou’s resuscitation of the subject has provided continental philosophy with new possibilities for political activism, its reliance on rare events has also paved the way for a potentially paralysing pre-evental situation. The aim of this paper is to examine Badiou’s own writings for hints of a theoreticallyjustified pre-evental politics—one that not only works within the ambit of his philosophical project but is also capable of explaining Badiou’s practical engagements in the politics of France. Two solutions are offered through (...)

    Manifeste accélérationniste.Alex Williams, Nick Srnicek & Yves Citton - 2014 - Multitudes 56 (2):23-35.
    L’avenir a besoin d’être construit. Il a été démoli par le capitalisme néolibéral pour être réduit à une promesse à prix réduit d’inégalités croissantes, de conflits et de chaos. L’effondrement de l’idée d’avenir est symptomatique du statut historique régressif de notre époque, bien davantage que d’une maturité sceptique, comme les cyniques essaient de nous le faire croire de tous les bords du champ politique. Il faut casser la coquille de l’avenir une fois encore, pour libérer nos horizons en les ouvrant (...)
