- W2044356757 abstract "This article introduces the concept of “utile forms” and analyzes the effects of these forms in imperial rule and contemporary counterinsurgency. Utile forms are media that enable bureaucracies to disseminate specialized knowledges to officials operating in the field. Examples include smart cards, field manuals and handheld biometric devices. We argue that utile forms have significant social and political effects irrespective of the “truth value” of the knowledge they contain. We analyze these effects in terms of world-ordering and world-making properties: utile forms both embody a particular worldview or ideology (world-ordering) and they facilitate official attempts to remake the world in accordance with this vision (world-making). We draw on examples of utile forms from British India and more recent conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan. The article concludes by reflecting on the relations between truth, knowledge and power in times of war and imperialism." @default.
