This article demonstrates the many seamless ways that multiple and diverse publics align their automatic, instinctual behaviors within the broad agenda of neoliberalism. Rather than surreptitiously crafting discourse to appeal to unconscious public dispositions, as neoliberalism does, it suggests that counterpublics consciously apply this technology to themselves. Specifically, it advocates that they forge a productive friction between rational critical thought and bodily habituation so as to reconstitute public orientations and open unexpected occasions for oppositional communication. This requires that scholars engage both traditional neoliberal critics and new materialist critics to tease out the embodied aspects of publics theory and infuse new materialism with an oppositional edge. Michel Foucault’s late lectures provide a theoretical and practical scaffolding for this practice of differently capacitating bodies. The article concludes by gesturing at how this public formation might further pull from underutilized rhetorical resources to expand the communicative possibilities of counterpublic production.

新自由主义与反公共调解的修辞学

本文展示了许多不同的公众在新自由主义的广泛议程范围内调整其自动的,本能的行为的多种无缝方式。与其说象新自由主义那样暗中设计话语以吸引无意识的公众倾向,不如说是反国家有意识地将这种技术应用于自己。具体而言,它主张他们在理性的批判思想与身体习惯之间建立起生产性摩擦,以重构公众取向并为对立交流打开意想不到的机会。这就要求学者与传统的新自由主义批评家和新的唯物主义的批评家进行互动,以梳理公众理论的具体方面,并以对立的方式注入新的唯物主义。米歇尔·福柯(Michel Foucault)的后期演讲为这种电容不同的做法提供了理论和实践的支持。本文最后以打手势为基础,探讨这种公共形态如何进一步从未得到充分利用的言辞资源中获取资源,以扩大反公共生产的交流可能性。
