The Decline of Phatic Efficiency
Postmodern Culture Pub Date : 2022-09-21 , DOI: 10.1353/pmc.2022.0003
Matthew J. Rigilano

Abstract:

This article assesses phatic communication now, when symbolic efficiency is in decline. As a result of neoliberal capitalism and industrialized social media, small talk is both obligatory and suffused with anxiety. Under disciplinary society, chitchat has been a threat to biopolitical control. Today, small talk is a form of surplus value that enters directly into the market. No longer a ritual of social facilitation, phatic communication takes on a pathological character. This article relies on psychoanalytic theory to complicate Paolo Virno’s take on the contemporary position of phatic language. In so doing, it asks: what does small talk become once the symbolic pact that ensured its efficacy has been broken?

社交效率的下降

摘要:

当符号效率下降时,本文评估了现在的口头交流。作为新自由主义资本主义和工业化社交媒体的结果,闲聊既是强制性的,又充满了焦虑。在纪律社会下,闲聊一直是对生命政治控制的威胁。今天,闲聊是一种直接进入市场的剩余价值形式。不再是一种社会促进的仪式,多嘴的交流呈现出一种病态的特征。这篇文章依赖于精神分析理论,使保罗·维尔诺 (Paolo Virno) 对当代言语语言立场的看法复杂化。这样做时,它会问:一旦确保其有效性的象征性协议被打破,闲聊会变成什么?
