what is counterrealism ?
-
The concept is an anticipatory concept i.e. its definition is to be defined in the future
-
The concept is multiple. The definition here is of course one of its multiple, anticipatory names.
-
It is an improvisational concept because it points at certain, existing infrastructural philosophical problems such as, for example, the enigma of the Real: our (in)ability to access the Absolute and the Thing-it-itself, the issues of difference and universality, limits of social constructivism and/or of reason, sense and rationality, collapse or separation of fact and value. The concept points and speculates on a hypothetical counter to these debates and the creation of an alternative space for act, thought and imagination
-
The concept is an eclectic, expanding and de-centering assemblage because it seeks to connect with the debates, imaginations and acts that lie outside of its immediate orbit of reference (see 2).
