This paper analyzes the ways in which Fredric Jameson comments on, critiques, and theorizes historical violence. While he never launched a full-fledged theory of violence, his idea of social antagonism, collectivity, and Utopian politics demonstrates a clearly discernible position on violence. As Jameson’s Utopian politics is grounded upon a profound reflection on the historical nature of systemic violence, his scholarship suggests a lens through which to locate the collective Utopian aspirations that cannot be reduced to factional interest and/or even antagonistic class relations. While the issue of violence is usually approached as a specifically political issue, and thus often led to a countering political violence and/or a provisional legal remedy, Jameson’s critical methodology suggests that a genuine attempt to deal with violence will have to consider the embedded nature of political violence in the areas of the economic and the cultural. In a nutshell, Jameson’s method is the sublation of present historical violence―collectively building up an alternative, though long-term, vision of a “different” society from within.
