 +  * **François Laruelle** undertakes an investigation into the generic in his contribution,​ entitled ‘The Generic as Predicate and Constant (Non-Philosophy and Materialism)’. Setting ‘genericity’ apart from philosophical universality,​ Laruelle produces genericity as a means through which disciplines and epistemologies can be equalized in light of the generic’s power of unilateral intervention.
 +  * In ‘The Ontic Principle: Outline of an Object-Oriented Philosophy’,​ **Levi Bryant** proposes a thought experiment in the spirit of Freud’s Beyond the Pleasure Principle. Noting philosophy’s epistemological obsession with the questions of where to begin, Bryant argues that the project of critique has become sterile, and invites the reader to imagine instead a new ontological beginning with what he calls ‘the ontic principle’. The ontic principle proposes that prior even to questions of epistemology,​ all questions of ontology presuppose difference and, more specifically,​ the production of difference. From the thesis that to be is to make a difference, Bryant develops a critique of correlationist philosophy, along with a host of theses about the being of objects, by way of proposing an object-oriented ontology he refers to as ‘onticology’.
 +  * **Steven Shaviro’s** contribution to this volume is entitled ‘The Actual Volcano: Whitehead, Harman, and the Problem of Relations’. Shaviro notes that of all the Speculative Realist philosophies,​ Harman’s is the one most closely allied with the thought of Alfred North Whitehead.
 +  * **Harman**, in his ‘Response to Shaviro’, disputes these criticisms.
 +  * **Bruno Latour’s** contribution to the volume, ‘Reflections on Étienne Souriau’s Les différents modes d’existence’,​ gives us a foretaste of Latour’s own coming major book. While the early Latour of Irréductions22 followed the principle that all physical, mental, animal, and fictional actors are on the same philosophical footing, the later Latour (following the largely forgotten Souriau) insists on drawing distinctions between the many different modes of being.

 +  * In ‘Outland Empire’, **Gabriel Catren** proposes to weave together four strands of modern philosophy: the absolute, the system, phenomenology,​ and knowledge.
 +  * In her essay ‘Wondering about Materialism’,​ **Isabelle Stengers** takes issue with the eliminativist understanding of nature, in which all knowledge except that of physics must ultimately be eliminated. This eliminativist materialism acts to lay the groundwork not just for an understanding of human reality, but for a transformation of it. It is a question of power and control. Against this reductive naturalism, Stengers proposes a messier and more complex materialism,​ one based on struggle among multiple entities and levels and not upon reducing the diversity of the world to a single plane.
 +  * In ;;;​‘Emergence,​ Causality, and Realism’;;;,​ **Manuel DeLanda** wades into debates surrounding emergence, proposing a non-mystical account of emergent systems based on singularities,​ attractors, and the virtual. Contesting the classical causal thesis that ‘one cause implies one effect, always’, DeLanda shows how sensitivity to initial conditions, coupled with interrelations between singularities,​ generate a host of non-linear phenomena and emergent properties.
 +  * The collection concludes with **Ben Woodard’s interview with Slavoj Žižek**, in which
 +Žižek articulates his own materialist position by contrasting it with a series of other
 +materialisms—naturalist,​ democratic, discursive, and speculative. For Žižek, contrary
 +to all these positions, only the assertion of the nature of reality as ‘non-All’ can sustain
 +a truly materialist position. Responding to various criticisms of his materialism,​ ;;;Žižek
