Gerald Raunig's latest book examines the concept and the genealogy of
“dividuum”. Locating its roots in Epicurean and Platonic philosophy and
referring to its controversial dispute in medieval philosophy, Raunig
argues that the term has gained a new relevance in the era of machinic
capitalism. Today, it is the formerly individual subject, the user, that
turns into a dividuum as she is constantly asking for data and providing
data. The old concept of dividuum, therefere, comes to describe what is to
replace the individual when the latter breaks down.
