Résumé:This first issue is dedicated to the exploration of the field opened up by the encounter between anthropology and materialism. Situating Walter Benjamin's anthropological materialism within the Frankfurt School tradition of a critique of a positive anthropology, the issue explores social practices (radio making for children), contemporary phenomena (urban phantasmagorias), as well as aesthetic and political philosophical themes such as surrealism and romanticism, the 'weak power' of messianism, and the state as a social relation.
