In earlier years, Campagna believed that the world's evils, however much they continued to grow, could be relieved by action in the same realms they appear--political, economic, social, but resurging fascism, environmental devastation, and capitalist biopolitics has convinced him that what we witness is only the surfacing of something deeper that needs our attention. He argues that however rationally and empirically people in the modern West think they believe and behave, they derive the world they perceive and create from a set of fundamental metaphysical axioms. The cosmogonic--world making--force of the age, he calls Technic, and contrasts it with cosmogonies of other times and peoples, which he calls Magic. Annotation ©2018 Ringgold, Inc., Portland, OR ()
