(Para-)humanity, Yellow Peril and the postcolonial (arche-)type

In a series of lectures on Nietzsche delivered in 1940, Heidegger enumerates the varieties of ‘consciously posited bindings’ that in the modern age secure for ‘mankind’ the possibility of its ‘absolute dominion over the entire earth’. These ‘bindings’ (das Verbindliche, or the obligatory) include, among others, ‘human reason’ (‘Enlightenment’), the ‘factual’ (‘Positivism’), and the ‘beautiful figure’ (‘Classicism’). Heidegger speaks also of the ‘binding’ that is the ‘power of self-reliant nations, or the ‘‘proletariat of all lands’’, or individual peoples and races’, alluding in the latter formulations to the ideological forces unleashed in a Europe rapidly plunging deeper into a global war, whether Nazism, fascism or Bolshevism. Heidegger concludes his catalogue of bindings with the one which most preoccupied him in his reading of Nietzsche and to which in the 1950s he would devote even more elaborate analyses, namely the concept of the ‘type’.
