What’s Love (or Care, Intimacy, Warmth, Affection) Got to Do with It?

What’s Love (or Care, Intimacy, Warmth, Affection) Got to Do with It?

It is often said that we no longer have an addressee for our political demands. But that’s not true. We have each other.
What we can no longer get from the state, the party, the union, the boss, we ask for from one another. And we provide.

Let’s see how need and care and desire and admiration have been cross-examined, called as witness, put on parole, made the subject of caring inquiry by e-flux journal authors since 2009.
