Affect and relational agency: How a negative ontology can broaden our understanding of IS research Journal Article

abstract = {The sociomaterial lens within IS research holds that agency should not be considered as a property
solely of humans, or of technology, but instead arises from an emergent interaction between
the two. This, emergent, account of agency deepens our understanding of unfolding IS practice,
but its largely cognitive orientation remains naïve towards affectively-sensed motivations that
also form part of this interaction. By implication, a sociomaterial perspective lacking an affective
dimension offers an incomplete conceptualisation of information systems. In response, an
affectively-informed negative ontology encourages IS researchers to extend their focus beyond the
visible, to encompass how actors' receptiveness towards material objects (discourses, technologies)
is shaped by deep, affectively-derived motivations of which they are not focally aware, but
which nonetheless acquire agency in contributing to a sociomaterial outcome. A central argument,
and illustrative empirical vignette, illustrate how the concepts of sociomateriality, affect,
and negative ontology combine to offer researchers an enhanced understanding of relational
agency. A discussion follows, exploring some initial ontological, epistemological and methodological
implications of an affectively-informed negative ontology for IS research.},

In particular, the theoretical contribution of this paper is to combine Labour Process with psychoanalytically-informed, post-structuralist theory, in order to connect to, and further our understanding of, how and why digital workers assent to, or oppose, the interpellations of algorithmic ideology at work. To illustrate the operation of affective control in the Platform Economy, the emblematic example of ride-hailing platforms, such as Uber, and their algorithmic management, is revisited. Thus, the empirical section describes the way drivers are glued to the algorithm (e.g. for one more fare, or for the next surge pricing) in a way that prevents them, although not always, from considering genuine resistance to management. Finally, the paper discusses the central place of ideological fantasy and cynical enjoyment in the Platform Economy, as well as the ethical implications of the study.},

The Logics enable us to study buy-in by revealing the differing degrees of affective self-identification that underpin and color social practices, showing their inherently political nature. We exemplify the affective as well as social politics of buy-in with an account of Unity 3D, a market-leading game engine that underwent a major repositioning from ?fringe? to ?mainstream? markets, and discuss four poles of affective positioning with which to conceptualize technology buy-in. We conclude by highlighting the consequent need for greater political and ethical awareness about the framing of IS and by proposing a framework for conceptualizing actors' orientations toward and thus possible buy-in or resistance to technology framing.},

The paper seeks to respond to this question by adopting a psychoanalytically informed approach to the analysis of how individuals perceive their own corruptness. I focus in particular on the Goldman Sachs Abacus deal, a notorious case of corruption concealed behind a facade of legality. Building on the detailed analysis of emails exchanges from within Goldman Sachs, I utilize the Lacanian concept of ?ideological fantasy' to discuss how the traders' narratives bear witness to a certain logic of fantasy that appears to fuel corrupt activities. I also examine the cover-up tactics which were adopted to camouflage the corrupt operations and make them appear licit. Corrupt performances and their cover-up are theorized as forms of self-transgressive jouissance, a simultaneously pleasurable and self- destructive practice that is needed to sustain and protect the impossible norms of the corporation.},

abstract = {While the ideas of contemporary French philosopher Alain Badiou have been largely influential on literature, art humanities, political sciences, government laws, cultural studies, and even education, geography and religion studies - including noticeable exegeses in the Anglo-Saxon world from Slavoj ?i?ek, Simon Critchley and Ed Pluth - their use in organization studies remains, perhaps startingly, marginal. Further, existing Badiouian organizational studies focus mainly on Being and Event but much less on his two other major opuses: Theory of the subject and Logics of World. The novelty of Badiou is to consider subjects at the interaction between language and psycho-sexual, traumatic experiences, which remain impossible to symbolize and thereby constitute political events. The notion of evental change does not bring about a new world on its own, but it requires a series of acts in a context, a form of faithfulness to the event - a performance which this paper further investigates.
Going beyond the current use of Badiou in organization studies, we propose a Badiouan theoretical framework to address organizational subjects' performativity, in terms of subjectivation (anxiety, courage) and subject-process (superego, justice), whose articulation gives rise to four various modes of affective acting (terror, skepticism, dogmatism and confidence). A framework comprising these modes of affective acting is aimed to support subjectivities intended to drive change in society, and to avoid those subjectivities favouring the status quo. Therefore, Badiou's approach is highly relevant for the cultivation of subjectivities promoting alternative goods, rather than focusing on critique and resistance.
To illustrate the relevance of this framework empirically, we offer a Badiouian interpretation of antiwork politics, a left-wing social movement which is either mocked or coopted by corporatism - and loses its radicality. As subjectivity is progressively manipulated and colonized by management, the novel application of Badiou's framework to the anti-work problem enables to revive the political and ethical dimension of work psychodynamics that is lost through individualistic and intra-psychic focus.},

A Lacanian enquiry into the self-identification of serious game designers may prove particularly worthwhile, as designers first need to cope with their own fantasmatic attachment if they are to develop serious games that seduce others. A brief case study investigates this issue through the ethnographic observation of how lack, identification and fantasy are all dynamically intertwined in the context of the development of a serious medical game aimed at the elderly. The findings describe the process through which designers confront their gamified scenario, and how they overcome the resulting tension. The discussion reveals the traumatic origin of their playful fantasy, namely the affective underside of suffering and conflict. However, ethical designers resist, and eventually undo, gamification through ambivalent acting and ?crossing? the fantasy. Finally, the conclusion presents broader implications for serious game design and future avenues for empirical research in the Lacanian tradition.},

From climate change to the loss of sense at work, to the new geopolitical crisis, to the unknown effects of the diffusion of AI, all these powerful forces have implications for organizations and organizing.

This paper provides some key notions for those interested in addressing the materiality of the affective register at work. By drawing on authors such as Lacan, Althusser, Butler and the Essex Lacanian School, this paper suggests that much is to be gained by addressing two difficult but crucial notions: the materiality of the signifier and ideological fantasy.},

By implication, a sociomaterial perspective lacking an affective dimension offers an incomplete conceptualisation of information systems. In response, an affectively-informed negative ontology encourages IS researchers to extend their focus beyond the visible, to encompass how actors' receptiveness towards material objects (discourses, technologies) is shaped by deep, affectively-derived motivations of which they are not focally aware, but which nonetheless acquire agency in contributing to a sociomaterial outcome. A central argument, and illustrative empirical vignette, demonstrate how the concepts of sociomateriality, affect, and negative ontology combine to offer researchers an enhanced understanding of relational agency.
