Surviving finitude: Survival as a constructed foundation of identity

The article deals with the biopolitical underpinnings of the Estonian national identity construction which is analysed by concentrating on public media coverage of (1) the Estonian Population and Housing Census 2011; and (2) the passing of the Registered Partnership Act in 2014. The object of analysis is the discourse – or the manner of speaking – that becomes apparent in the discussion of these cases. It is called the discourse of survival , since the main aim of national identity construction is to ensure the perseverance and preservation of this identity. This enables us to insert political identity construction into a biopolitical framework in which the political subject is understood as a fundamentally finite living being. In conceptualizing biopolitical finitude and the accompanying need of survival as the logic of identity construction, the article suggests the semiotic logic of this type of identity process as auto-communicative solidification of identity that has a presentist temporal structure.

生存的有限性:生存是身份的建构基础

本文论述了爱沙尼亚民族身份建构的生物政治基础,并通过集中于以下媒体的公共媒体分析进行了分析:(1)2011年爱沙尼亚人口和住房普查;(2)2014年《注册合伙法》的通过。分析的对象是讨论这些案件时显而易见的话语或说话方式。之所以称其为生存话语,是因为民族身份建构的主要目的是确保这种身份的持久性和保存性。这使我们能够将政治身份建构插入到生物政治框架中,在该框架中,政治主体被理解为根本上有限的生物。在将生物政治局限性和随之而来的生存需要作为身份建构的逻辑概念化时,
