Jean Baudrillard's Impossible Exchange
An essay that also features a summary of Impossible Exchange , one of Beaudrillards newer books. The article was written by Liam McNamara.
http://www.reconstruction.ws/BReviews/revImpossibleExchange.htm

Extractions: Baudrillard, Jean. Translator: Turner, Chris. London: Verso, 2001. 151p., $18.00, softcover. ISBN: 1859843492. For a Critique of the Political Economy of the Sign (1981) and The Mirror of Production (1975)remain resolutely out of print, perhaps because they do not accord with his recent high profile in the media. The hermetic obscurantism of these older texts repels a more casual reader, steeped as they are in poststructuralist theory and remote Marxist anthropology. They are also more rigorously scholarly than books such as Impossible Exchange , and therefore a less pleasurable read for the academically uninitiated. However, Baudrillard's middle phase, typified by Symbolic Exchange and Death (1993), is constantly in print, although largely due to the earlier chapters on simulation, which may appeal to those involved in careers in film or television; the overall argument that he is attempting to make regarding symbolic exchange receives far less critical attention. It is Baudrillard's "fatal" phase of theory, published almost exclusively by Verso, which has established his current notoriety. Super-Cannes (2000) and the film The Matrix (1999), has now acquired a hip cultural cachet, and this has sadly resulted in his academic marginalization; he is now too popular, uncritical, or politically quietistic, divorced from "real" social issues. But one cannot invoke the "real" to criticize Baudrillard, and logically this has resulted in strong reactions against him within the "theory machine" of the academy. But how many academics, in all honesty, have taken the trouble to respond to Baudrillard's provocations or trace the trajectory of his ideas?

Jean Baudrillard - The Spirit Of Terrorism - 2001
This essay was first published by Le Monde in November 2001. English translation by Dr Rachel Bloul.
http://www.egs.edu/faculty/baudrillard/baudrillard-the-spirit-of-terrorism.html

Extractions: Le Monde 2 November 2001. In footnotes: personal comments to remind me to think about these points when later analyzing the piece. In italics, details about not-quite-direct translations. Not only are all history and power plays disrupted, but so are the conditions of analysis. One must take one's time. For as long as events were at a standstill, one had to anticipate and overcome them. But when they speed up, one must slow down; without getting lost under a mass of discourses and the shadow of war ("nuage de la guerre": literally clouds announcing war), and while keeping undiminished the unforgettable flash of images. It is almost they who did it, but we who wanted it. If one does not take that into account, the event lost all symbolic dimension to become a pure accident, an act purely arbitrary, the murderous fantasy of a few fanatics, who would need only to be suppressed. But we know very well that this is not so. Thus all those delirious, counter-phobic exorcisms: because evil is there, everywhere as an obscure object of desire. Without this deep complicity, the event would not have had such repercussions, and without doubt, terrorists know that in their symbolic strategy they can count on this unavowable complicity. This goes much further than hatred for the dominant global power from the disinherited and the exploited, those who fell on the wrong side of global order. That malignant desire is in the very heart of those who share (this order's) benefits. An allergy to all definitive order, to all definitive power is happily universal, and the two towers of the World Trade Center embodied perfectly, in their very double-ness (literally twin-ness), this definitive order.

Jean Baudrillard - A Conjuration Of Imbeciles - 1997
An essay about the French rightwing populist jean-Marie Le Pen and his National Front-Party.
http://www.egs.edu/faculty/baudrillard/baudrillard-a-conjuration-of-imbeciles.ht

Extractions: Liberation May 7, 1997. Two situations, both critical and insoluble. One is the total worthlessness of contemporary art. The other is the impotence of the political class in front of Le Pen. The two situations are exchangeable, and their solutions are transferable. Indeed, the inability to offer any political alternative to Le Pen is displaced to the cultural terrain, to the domain where a Holy Cultural Alliance prevails. Conversely, the problematization of contemporary art can only come from a reactionary, irrational, or even fascist mode of thinking. With the left and the traditional right both deprived of political substance, where has the political gone to? Well, simply, it has moved to the far right. As Bruno Latour so accurately noted the other day in Le Monde If Le Pen did not exist, we would have to invent him! Indeed, it is thanks to him that we can get rid of our evil share, of what is the worst part of us. It is as such that we can curse Le Pen. If he were to disappear, however, we would be left begging for pity! We would be left struggling with our own racist, sexist, and nationalist (everyone's fate) viruses. Simply, we would be abandoned to the murderous negativity of society. As such, Le Pen is the perfect mirror of the political class which uses him to conjure up its own evils, just as every individual uses the political class to cast away any form of corruption inherent to society (both are similar types of corrupt and cathartic functions). Trying to put an end to this, trying to purify society and moralize public life, trying to eradicate what claims to embody evil is a complete misunderstanding of the way evil operates, of the way politics itself operates.

Jean Baudrillard And Digitality
An essay written by George P. Landow, Professor of English and Art History, Brown University. Deals with new media and hypertext.
http://www.victorianweb.org/cpace/ht/jhup/digitality.html

Extractions: Johns Hopkins University Press Jean Baudrillard, who presents himself as a follower of Walter Benjamin and Marshall McLuhan, is someone who seems both fascinated and appalled by what he sees as the all-pervading effects of such digital encoding, though his examples suggest that he is often confused about which media actually employ it. The strengths and weaknesses of Baudrillard's approach appear in his remarks on the digitization of knowledge and information. Baudrillard correctly perceives that movement from the tactile to the digital is the primary fact about the contemporary world, but then he misconceives or rather only partially perceives the implications of his point. According to him, digitality involves binary opposition: "Digitality is with us. It is that which haunts all the messages, all the signs of our societies. The most concrete form you see it in is that of the test, of the question/answer, of the stimulus/response" ( Simulations ). Baudrillard most clearly posits this equivalence, which he mistakenly takes to be axiomatic, in his statement that "the true generating formula, that which englobes all the others, and which is somehow the stabilized form of the code, is that of binarity, of digitality" (145). From this he concludes that the primary fact about digitality is its connection to "cybernetic control . . . the new operational configuration," since "digitalization is its metaphysical principle (the God of Leibnitz), and DNA its prophet" (103).
Jean Baudrillard - GLOBAL DEBT AND PARALLEL UNIVERSE
This essay deals with the public debt in the USA as well as on a global level and the impossibility to pay it back.
http://www.egs.edu/faculty/baudrillard/baudrillard-global-debt-and-parallel-univ

Extractions: Liberation, Paris. An electronic billboard in Times Square displays the American public debt, an astronomic figure of some thousands of billions of dollars which increases at a rate of $20,000 a second. Another electronic billboard at the Beaubourg Center in Paris displays the thousands of seconds until the year 2000. The latter figure is that of time, which gradually diminishes. The former figure is that of money, which increases at a sky-rocketing speed. The latter is a countdown to second zero. The former, on the contrary, extends to infinity. Yet, at least in the imaginary, both of them evoke a catastrophe: the vanishing of time at Beaubourg; the passing of the debt into an exponential mode and the possibility of a financial crash in Times Square. In fact, the debt will never be paid. No debt will ever be paid. The final counts will never take place. If time is counted [si le temps nous est compte], the missing money is beyond counting [au-dela de toute comptabilite]. The United States is already virtually unable to pay, but this will have no consequence whatsoever. There will be no judgment day for this virtual bankruptcy. It is simple enough to enter an exponential or virtual mode to become free of any responsibility, since there is no reference anymore, no referential world to serve as a measuring norm.
Baudrillard_Simulacra And Simulations
jean baudrillard. Simulacra and Simulations. from jean baudrillard, Selected Writings, ed. Mark Poster (Stanford; Stanford University Press, 1988), pp.166184.
http://www.stanford.edu/dept/HPS/Baudrillard/Baudrillard_Simulacra.html

Extractions: Jean Baudrillard from Jean Baudrillard, Selected Writings , ed. Mark Poster (Stanford; Stanford University Press, 1988), pp.166-184. The simulacrum is never that which conceals the truthit is the truth which conceals that there is none. The simulacrum is true. Ecclesiastes If we were able to take as the finest allegory of simulation the Borges tale where the cartographers of the Empire draw up a map so detailed that it ends up exactly covering the territory (but where, with the decline of the Empire this map becomes frayed and finally ruined, a few shreds still discernible in the deserts - the metaphysical beauty of this ruined abstraction, bearing witness to an imperial pride and rotting like a carcass, returning to the substance of the soil, rather as an aging double ends up being confused with the real thing), this fable would then have come full circle for us, and now has nothing but the discrete charm of second-order simulacra.l Abstraction today is no longer that of the map, the double, the mirror or the concept. Simulation is no longer that of a territory, a referential being or a substance. It is the generation by models of a real without origin or reality: a hyperreal. The territory no longer precedes the map, nor survives it. Henceforth, it is the map that precedes the territory - precession of simulacra - it is the map that engenders the territory and if we were to revive the fable today, it would be the territory whose shreds are slowly rotting across the map. It is the real, and not the map, whose vestiges subsist here and there, in the deserts which are no longer those of the Empire, but our own. The desert of the real itself.
Jean Baudrillard - IN THE SHADOW OF THE MILLENNIUM 1998
Another essay discussing the end of the last millennium and what might be beyond it.
http://www.egs.edu/faculty/baudrillard/baudrillard-in-the-shadow-of-the-millenni

Extractions: By the way, the clock's own fate at the Beaubourg was interesting too. It was taken down six months ago and placed in a safe where it continues to work until the end. But nobody can see it. It is as if political authorities were afraid of what could happen if we were able to see the end of this live (living) countdown (it was replaced with a billboard on the Eiffel Tower, but this one only marks down the days until the millennium, which is far less dramatic). They were perhaps afraid of a sudden millenarian panic. Who knows? It may also be that the real time of contemporary life can no longer deal with chronological time. No matter what the reason was, the clock has disappeared, and this really looks like an attempt to undercut the advent of the Year 2000, a way of recalling it and sending it back to the warehouse to ward off its potential effects. At the Beaubourg, the Year 2000 will not take place. We are already in the anticipated void of the Year 2000, in its shadow, as if it were an approaching asteroid. Just as any electoral deadline freezes political life a year ahead of time, so does the shadow of the millennium which creates an empty vortex that swallows the entire century. It revises all historical requirements to the point of erasing the very marks of history (and of the 20th century). We dig in the archives. We settle old accounts. We revive memories (including the memory of the Year 2000 in anticipation, as if it had already taken place). We launder and purify to desperately try to end the century with a politically correct balance sheet. This is by and large a question of historical purification. The entire 20th century is on trial. And this is new. None of the previous centuries did that. What they did was history. What we are doing is history's trial.

Jean Baudrillard - ON THE MURDEROUS CAPACITY OF IMAGES 1993
Excerpt from The Evil Demon of Images and the Precession of Simulacra . Deals with reality and images.
http://www.egs.edu/faculty/baudrillard/baudrillard-on-the-murderous-capacity-of-

Extractions: From "The Evil Demon of Images and the Precession of Simulacra," in Thomas Docherty, ed., Postmodernism: A Reader (New York: Columbia Univ. Press, 1993) pp. 194 ff. So it is with simulation, insofar as it is opposed to representation. The latter starts from the principle that the sign and the real are equivalent (even if this equivalence is utopian, it is a fundamental axiom). Conversely, simulation starts from the utopia of this principle of equivalence, from the radical negation of the sign as value, from the sign as reversion and death sentence of every reference. Whereas representation tries to absorb simulation by interpreting it as false representation, simulation envelops the edifice of representation as itself a simulacrum. This would be the successive phases of the image: it is the reflection of a basic reality.

Jean Baudrillard - PATAPHYSICS OF YEAR 2000 1992
This essay is about the absence of history and liberation in the new millennium.
http://www.egs.edu/faculty/baudrillard/baudrillard-pataphysics-of-year-2000.html

Extractions: Originally, L'Illusion de la fin: ou La greve des evenements , Galilee: Paris, 1992. A tormenting thought: as of a certain point, history was no longer real. Without noticing it, all mankind suddenly left reality; everything happening since then was supposedly not true; but we supposedly didn't notice. Our task would now be to find that point, and as long as we didn't have it, we would be forced to abide in our present destruction. Elias Cannetti (1978:69) There are diverse plausible hypotheses with respect to this vanishing or disappearance of history. Canetti's expression that "all mankind suddenly left reality" compellingly invokes the speed of liberation a body would require to escape the gravitational pull of a star or a planet. Following this imagery, we could suppose that the acceleration of technology-, event- and media- driven modernity, as well as the speed of other economic, political and sexual exchanges have set loose a tempo of liberation whereby we have become removed from the sphere of reference to the real, to history. We have been "liberated" in every sense of the term, so much so that we have moved beyond a certain space-time, we've left a certain horizon where the real was possible because gravitation was still strong enough for things to reflect on themselves and thereby possess or acquire some sort of duration (
Jean Baudrillard - PHOTOGRAPHY, OR THE WRITING OF LIGHT 2000
Essay on photography which affirms itself as both the purest and the most artificial exposition of the image.
http://www.egs.edu/faculty/baudrillard/baudrillard-photography-or-the-writing-of

Extractions: Ctheory, 2000. The miracle of photography, of its so-called objective image, is that it reveals a radically non-objective world. It is a paradox that the lack of objectivity of the world is disclosed by the photographic lens (objectif). Analysis and reproduction (ressemblance) are of no help in solving this problem. The technique of photography takes us beyond the replica into the domain of the trompe l'oeil . Through its unrealistic play of visual techniques, its slicing of reality, its immobility, its silence, and its phenomenological reduction of movements, photography affirms itself as both the purest and the most artificial exposition of the image. At the same time, photography transforms the very notion of technique. Technique becomes an opportunity for a double play: it amplifies the concept of illusion and the visual forms. A complicity between the technical device and the world is established. The power of objects and of "objective" techniques converge. The photographic act consists of entering this space of intimate complicity, not to master it, but to play along with it and to demonstrate that nothing has been decided yet (rendre evidente l'idee que les jeux ne sont pas faits). "What cannot be said must be kept silent." But what cannot be said can also be kept silent through a display of images.

Jean Baudrillard - REVERSION OF HISTORY - 1992
Discussion whether the movement of modernity is reversible or if there is a wall of history .
http://www.egs.edu/faculty/baudrillard/baudrillard-reversion-of-history.html

Extractions: L'Illusion de la fin: ou La greve des evenements, Galilee: Paris, 1992. And yet this is not what is meant by the end of history. What we have to deal with is a paradoxical process of reversion, a reversal of effect with respect to modernity which, having reached its speculative limit and extrapolated all its virtual developments, disintegrates into its rudimentary components through a catastrophic process of recurrence and turbulence. By means of this retroversion of history to infinity, through this hyperbolic curvature, the century eludes its own end. By way of this retrospective effect of events, we escape before our own death. Metaphorically speaking therefore, we will not even attain to the symbolic end of things, the symbolic culmination of Year 2000. Can we avoid this retro-curvature of a history that backtracks on its footsteps and effaces its own traces; can we sidestep this fatal asymptote which in some way rolls back modernity in the way one rewinds a tapedeck? We are so accustomed to viewing all films over and over again, the fictitious ones as well as those pertaining to our lives; we have been so thoroughly contaminated by a retrospective technique that we are quite capable, under the blow of contemporary vertigo, to rethread history as one threads a film wrong side up.
Jean Baudrillard - RISE OF THE VOID TOWARDS THE PERIPHERY - 1992
Discussion about unreal events with which the public is being disinformed.
http://www.egs.edu/faculty/baudrillard/baudrillard-rise-of-the-void-towards-the-

Extractions: L'Illusion de la fin: ou La greve des evenements (Paris: Galilee, 1992). As a watermark of unexpected, but also in view of other unforeseen events, the idea was conceived at the dawn of the nineties among a few friends to set up an Agency that would be invisible, anonymous and clandestine, Stealthy Agency, equally labelled as: ANATHEMATIC ILLIMITED INTERNATIONAL EPIDEMICS Seeking to hunt down unreal events with which to disinform the public, it itself has remained unreal. In this sense, it perfectly fulfilled its role, as it managed to escape all radar detection to become a unique formula that is never virtual. action l'actio ] simultaneously disappeared with the auction l'auctoritas ]. All that remains are "current events", a kind of cinematographic "action", an "auction", i.e., the price-tagging of the event in an overbid of information. The event is taken up not only in action but in speculation and, eventually, in a chain reaction that links facticity to extremes in such a manner that no interpretation can be rejoined to it. Simulation is precisely this irresistible unfolding, this linkage of things as if they had a meaning, so that they are no longer controlled or regulated except by artificial montage and non-sense. It is the putting up for auction of the event through radical disinformation, the price-tagging of the event instead of gambling with it, instead of investing in the stakes of history. If, on the other hand, should there be a stake in this, it remains occult, enigmatic, and resolved in events that have never really taken place. And I am not talking about ordinary events, but of the events of the East [Eastern Europe], of the Gulf War, etc. What the Agency otherwise specifically aimed at was to oppose this simulation with a radical dissimulation

Jean Baudrillard - SIMULACRA AND SIMULATIONS - 1998
One of Baudrillards most famous writings. Discusses ideological discourses and discourses of truth.
http://www.egs.edu/faculty/baudrillard/baudrillard-simulacra-and-simulations.htm

Extractions: Ecclesiastes The divine irreference of images The alienist, of course, claims that "for each form of the mental alienation there is a particular order in the succession of symptoms, of which the simulator is unaware and in the absence of which the alienist is unlikely to be deceived." This (which dates from 1865) in order to save at all cost the truth principle, and to escape the specter raised by simulation: namely that truth, reference and objective caues have ceased to exist. What can medicine do with something which floats on either side of illness, on either side of health, or with the reduplication of illness in a discourse that is no longer true or false? What can psychoanalysis do with the reduplication of the discourse of the unconscious in a discourse of simulation that can never be unmasked, since it isn't false either?2 What can the army do with simulators? Traditionally, following a direct principle of identification, it unmasks and punishes them. Today, it can reform an excellent simulator as though he were equivalent to a "real" homosexual, heart-case or lunatic. Even military psychology retreats from the Cartesian clarifies and hesitates to draw the distinction between true and false, between the "produced" symptom and the authentic symptom. "If he acts crazy so well, then he must be mad." Nor is it mistaken: in the sense that all lunatics are simulators, and this lack of distinction is the worst form of subversion. Against it, classical reason armed itself with all its categories. But it is this today which again outflanks them, submerging the truth principle.
