<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 11.5pt; font-family: "Times New Roman"; color: windowtext;">A growing number of philosophical studies are arguing for new frameworks from which to theorise and grapple with contemporary forms of violence that escape the
overdetermined representations thereof that ensued in the decade or so following 9/11 – which Jeffrey Di Leo and Uppinder Mehan aptly called critical ‘theory’s “ground zero”’ (2012: 16). While it is true that these attacks transformed current-day perceptions
and theorisations of violence, the ensuing so-called Wars on Terror led to reductionist treatments thereof, thereby eliding the incredibly complex, multi-layered and lived phenomenon that violence is and which cannot be captured in universal frameworks but
must, instead, be situated in its material, immaterial, affective and now digital contexts.</span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 11.5pt; color: windowtext;"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

methodologies: it is, we hold, no longer sufficient to merely address the impact that violence currently has through, for example, the Foucauldian (1980) idea of the apparatus – a contextual arrangement of discursive-material phenomena diagramming, and thus
maintaining societal power relations, while shaping subjects. Neither does the Harawayan (1988: 591) ‘apparatus of bodily production’, which pays more attention to the intersecting lived categories of gender, race/ethnicity, sexuality and so on, suffice as
an analytical</span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; color: windowtext;"><span style="font-size: 14.6667px;"> </span></span><span style="font-size: 11.5pt; color: windowtext; font-family: "Times New Roman";">instrument. Although both
Foucault and Haraway accurately theorise the differential mattering of embodied subjects and the violence inflicted during processes of (non-)mattering, today’s societies, together with the myriad ways in which violence manifests itself, are rapidly changing.
Driven by neoliberal governmentality, extractive capitalism and contemporary (counter-) terrorism, present-day societies of hyper-control are plagued by violent threats from multiple, often crisscrossing, directions engendered by interlinked macrostructures
and microevents that combine the (im)material, discursive, digital and affective. We may think here, for example, of the violent – yet insufficiently emphasised – damage inflicted by white supremacy, institutionalised racism and racist microaggressions; the
mob-inciting divisive rhetoric of neo-fascist populists pushing for alt-facts and alt-realities; the increase in affective disorders, driven by what Mark Fisher (2009) calls capitalist realism; material-immaterial infowars engendering algorithmic violence,
fittingly described by Mimi Onuoha as ‘violence that an algorithm or automated decision-making system inflicts by preventing people from meeting their basic needs’ (2018: n. p.; also see Noble 2018; Bellanova et al. 2021); or the Anthropogenic-Capitalogenic
ecocide unfolding itself and impacting transcorporeally entangled human and more-than-human worlds (see Alaimo 2016).</span></p>

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 11.5pt; font-family: "Times New Roman"; color: windowtext;">It would seem, then, that novel analytical perspectives are needed and this, as we would like to propose, can be found in what Joseph Pugliese and Susan Stryker
(2009: 2-3), inspired by Foucault, have identified as a ‘somatechnical assemblage’. Initially intimated by Nikki Sullivan (2005), but further developed by Joseph Pugliese and Susan Stryker, and later on also by Sullivan and Samantha Murray (2011: v) and Line
Henriksen and Marietta Radomska (2015), somatechnics stands for ‘the materialisation of embodied being[s]’ or how they come to matter through processes of material-discursive-affective meaning-making. Bringing together the corporeal and the technological –
which, according to a somatechnical perspective, are always already enmeshed – a somatechnics-focused analytical framework zooms in on the (un)making and (de)humanisation of corporeal beings, all while creating space for a much-needed ethico-political critique
of the various types of violence these corporeal beings are forced to endure.</span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 11.5pt; color: windowtext;"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 11.5pt; font-family: "Times New Roman"; color: windowtext;">While we are open to a variety of frameworks and methodologies from which to theorise violence, we encourage special issue contributors to think beyond so-called
shifts and similar epistemological paradigms that follow a logic of tracing – a way of thinking that fixes phenomena by means of neatly organised structures and representations (see Deleuze and Guattari 2005 for this critique). The reason for this is that
we, in somatechnical fashion, would like to emphasise the entangled nature of the corporeal, incorporeal and the technological; the micro and the macro; as well as of humans, the more-than-human and the dehumanised – aspects brought into sharp focus by, for
example, critical new materialist, posthumanist and Deleuzoguattarian philosophies (see e.g., Chen 2012; Braidotti 2013; Shotwell 2016). Or as Elizabeth Grosz has put it: When analysing violence, ‘the incorporeal conditions of corporeality, the excesses beyond
and within corporeality that frame, orient and direct material things and processes’ need to be examined in relation to corporeality and material (infra)structures (Grosz 2017; Grosz in Grosz and Bell 2017: 5).</span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 11pt; color: windowtext;"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
