Object-Oriented Ontology i kapitał perfomatywny, czyli nowe spojrzenie na przedmioty w działaniu

The article is a critical reflection on the problem of agency of objects, which is analyzed on the basis of chair renewal in the perspective of Graham Harman’s Object-Oriented Ontology. In the course of the analysis it appears that the theory of the American philosopher is insufficient to grasp the problem of objects activity, therefore the article proposes an authorial posthuman category - the concept of performative capital - intended to answer the question of how objects work and, simultaneously, how they exist.
