橫截共生發源：繪製後殖民的非線性未來

Transversal Symbiogenesis: Mapping a Nonlinear Postcolonial Future

本文提出「橫截共生發源」（transversal symbiogenesis）的概念架構，藉以探討後殖民生命政治與行星演化。從法農（Frantz Fanon）對被殖民者情動性與肉身圖式的分析出發，我探討，在一個跨物種後殖民脈絡中，暴力、共生與變態（metamorphosis）三者之間的生大式關係。援引瓜塔里（Félix Guattari）所提出的「橫截性」（transversality）概念，我主張發展一種超越垂直譜系與水平聯結二元對立的橫截取向，以闡明殖民史學如何被銘刻於行星生命的分子動態之中。此外，本文將馬古利斯（Lynn Margulis）的共生發源理論和威廉森（Donald I. Williamson）具有爭議的「幼蟲轉移假說」（larval transferhypothesis）並置，重新思考「混雜性」（hybridity）與「幼蟲主體」（larval subject）的政治與生物報意涵。透過後殖民理論與演化生物報之間的跨報科對話，本文指出：「暴力的不可化約性」並非否定和平，而是創造性轉化得以發生的代謝條件。因此，「史學」不再是一個靜態名詞，而是一個積極的動詞——一種在多重異質的物種、語言與時間性之間持續縫合的行星過程。最終，本文呼籲展開一項朝向非線性橫截共生發源的後殖民行星計劃，以回應人類世中多尺度的暴力與再生政治。

This paper proposes transversal symbiogenesis as a conceptual framework for exploring postcolonial biopolitics and planetary evolution. Beginning with Frantz Fanon’s analysis of affectivity and the corporeal schema of the colonized, I examine the generative relations among violence, symbiosis, and metamorphosis within a trans-species postcolonial context. Drawing on Félix Guattari’s notion of transversality, I argue for a transversal approach that surpasses the binary of vertical genealogy and horizontal connection, thereby articulating how colonial histories are inscribed into the molecular dynamics of planetary life. The discussion further juxtaposes Lynn Margulis’s theory of symbiogenesis with Donald I. Williamson’s controversial larval transfer hypothesis to reconsider the political and biological meanings of hybridity and the larval subject. Through an interdisciplinary dialogue between postcolonial theory and evolutionary biology, the paper contends that the irreducibility of violence does not negate peace but constitutes the metabolic condition of creative transformation. History, therefore, ceases to be a static noun and becomes an active verb—a planetary process of continuous stitching among heterogeneous species, languages, and temporalities. Ultimately, the paper calls for a postcolonial planetary project of nonlinear transversal symbiogenesis that responds to the multi-scalar violence and regenerative politics of the Anthropocene.
