Summary:
After an issue dedicated to the persistent structures of colonial domination and racialization in western and northern European societies, The Funambulist 55 (Sep-Oct 2024) Asian Imperialisms intends to decenter Europe, and examine historical and present processes of imperial and/or colonial domination by seven arguably ethnocratic Asian states, namely, Japan, the People’s Republic of China, the Russian Federation (and the Soviet Union), India, Pakistan, Iran, and Turkey (alongside Azerbaijan). This “Asian” denomination chosen for this issue’s title follows historic examples of solidarity at this massive continental scale, the most famous one being the 1955 Afro–Asian Conference in Bandung. The cover is an artwork by Korean artist Kyungmi Shin

From the Apartheid wall in Palestine to the digital paywall, from memorial murals in Jamaica to the increasingly tall glass facades of modern office blocks, walls testify to the tumult of history and humanity’s ceaseless urge to communicate and to sow division. They force us to reflect on the paradoxes of openness and isolation, of enclosure and exclusion. In a world drowning in borders, barriers and barbed-wire fences, this issue of MacGuffin pauses for thought and asks: What exactly do we want to express or protect? And why?

La paix, ce sujet s'est imposé au comité de Liberté. Car à quoi sert d'écrire en temps de guerres et même de génocide, sinon à chercher la paix? Nous avons voulu traiter ce sujet avec sérieux, comme une utopie qui a besoin d’être réimaginée, parce que toutes ses représentations connues semblent échouer à nous la faire fabriquer. Nous avons cherché de quoi pourrait être faite la paix qui ne serait si silenciation, ni humiliation, la paix qui serait une sortie de la domination. Les textes qui composent ce dossier demandent que, d'abord, cesse le mensonge à propos de la paix. Pas de paix sans dignité, sans liberté et sans justice.
