Mikrofizyka władzy, mikrofizyka oporu. Nie-podmiotowa strategia polityczna w ujęciu społecznej teorii queer
Microphysics of Power, Microphysics of Resistance. Non-entity Political Strategy in terms of Social Queer Theory

Summary/Abstract: "Private is political": the most essential procedures of power consist in the production of the subjectivity, the submissive identity and the submissive bodies. The power is the process of normalization of everyday gestures, thoughts and desires. That is why the question about the political, the question posing from the perspective of the social queer theory is the question about the rules of reproduction of the social system of domination (gender, sexual, racial etc.), about the mechanism of involving of the bodies in the normative simulations. Subjectivity from this perspective is a "simulation of simulation", but is not an illusion. Subjectivity produces the real, material effects on the surface of bodies and also the real effects in the social systems of gender or sexual segregation. Therefore the resistance consists in querying ("queering") about the normative subjectivity, its obviousness, "naturalness". The resistance consists in liberating the bodies from the normative obligations. In this paper I'm trying to explain that the practice of queer fight consists in transforming stable, socially constructed subjectivities into unstable, changeable, "crossing out", open, non-logical, inconsistent (non)subjectivities. The power achieves its goals owing to the subordinations of bodies. The practice of the resistance must be the practice of the insubordination.
