Re: <nettime> endo-colonisation;

[Marc Tuters <nodus@sympatico.ca>]

   Re: Ashcroft's is of course a practical proposal for what Virilio
   calls "endo-colonization".
   
   According to Virilio the growth of the media industries in the
   post-war era can be considered together with the birth of the military
   industrial complex as constituting a general miltarization of society.
   It is no longer exo-colonization (the age of extending world conquest)
   but the age of intensiveness and endo-colonization.  Now one colonizes
   ones own population
   
   Virilio discusses the concept of endo-colonization in Pure War
   Virilio, Paul, and Sylvere Lotringer, (1983) Pure War, Semiotext(e)
   Foreign Agents Series, New York
   
   Cheers,
