Description

This book introduces the reader to Serres unique manner of doing philosophy that can be traced throughout his entire oeuvre: namely as a novel manner of bearing witness. It traces how Serres takes note of a range of epistemologically unsettling situations, which he witnesses as arising from the short-circuit of a proprietary notion of capital with a praxis of science that commits itself to a form of reasoning which privileges the most direct path (simple method) in order to expend minimal efforts while pursuing maximal efficiency. In Serres universal economy, value is considered as a function of rarity, not as a stock of resources. This book demonstrates how Michel Serres has developed an architectonics that is coefficient with nature. This book acquaints the reader with Serres monist manner of addressing the universality and the power of knowledge that is at once also the anonymous and empty faculty of incandescent, inventive thought. It proceeds in a twofold manner: on the one hand, the chapters of the book demarcate, problematize and contextualize some of these epistemologically unsettling situations within the techno-scientific domains that have propelled their formation. On the other hand, careful attention is given to the particular manner in which Michel Serres responds to and converses with these situations, testifying for an exodic rather than methodic praxis of a science that is entirely of this world, and yet not deprived of its dignity.
