Book Preview:

#1 The past century was an immunological age. The twentieth century was dominated by the vocabulary of the Cold War, which was an entirely military dispositive. Everything foreign was simply fought off.

#2 The immunological paradigm is incompatible with the process of globalization. The world is still marked by borders, transitions, thresholds, fences, ditches, and walls that prevent universal change and exchange.

#3 The violence of positivity that comes from overproduction, overachievement, and overcommunication is no longer viral. It does not constitute immunological defense, but digestive-neuronal abreaction and refusal.

#4 The genealogy of hostility that Baudrillard outlines is that the enemy first takes the form of a wolf. He is an external enemy who attacks and against whom one defends oneself by building fortifications and walls.
