> How is violence a non-moral category?
Morality always entails a subjective choice. But those choices always depend on historical situations, i.e. how subjects think of themselves, what tools they have on hand -- something which fascinated Sartre in the 1960s, many of his categories, like derealization, the practico-inert, and group seriality are attempts at explaining how markets produce violence through artificially-imposed scarcity. In many ways, violence is, weird as it sounds, an aesthetic category rather than a juridical one -- very much like its ideological twin, the ideological topos otherwise known as Crime.
