Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. What do the invention of anaesthetics in the middle of the nineteenth century, the Nazis' use of cocaine, and the development of Prozac have in common? The answer is that they're all products of the same logic that defines our contemporary era: 'the age of anaesthesia'. Laurent de Sutter shows how large aspects of our lives are now characterised by the management of our emotions through drugs, ranging from the everyday use of sleeping pills to hard narcotics. Chemistry has become so much a part of us that we cant even see how much it has changed us. In this era, being a subject doesn't simply mean being subjected to powers that decide our lives: it means that our very emotions have been outsourced to chemical stimulation. Yet we don't understand why the drugs that we take are unable to free us from fatigue and depression, and from the absence of desire that now characterizes our psychopolitical condition. We have forgotten what it means to be excited because our only excitement has become drug-induced. We have to abandon the narcotic stimulation that weve come to rely on and find a way back to the collective excitement that is narcocapitalisms greatest fear. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. No hay nada que temer porque todo es peligroso. Solo este aprendizaje podra quizas reconciliarnos con la prodigiosa amplitud del acto de pensamiento.El peligro nos rodea, habita en nuestro quehacer cotidiano y nos angustia cuando se nos escapa. Ante esto solo buscamos una cosa: seguridad. Pero este reclamo no proviene de nosotros, abrumados por la realidad que nos sobrepasa. El miedo es ante todo un vasto proceso politico de definicion, en el que lo que esta en juego es ni mas ni menos la posibilidad de una distincion entre lo pensable y lo impensable.En un texto lleno de virtuosismo, en el que combina musica y derecho romano, filosofia e historia, psicoanalisis y teologia, Laurent de Sutter nos recuerda hasta que punto temer el peligro es hacerse eco del temor de un poder para el que la seguridad es la mejor manera de perpetuarse.Elogio del peligro permite mantener las puertas abiertas a la posibilidad y al registro de lo probable. Es preciso, aprender a vivir con el peligro cada dia, explorando y ampliando nuestros propios limites, para poner en entredicho las fuerzas soberanas que en pro de la seguridad nos constrinen. Nunca es a nosotros a los que el peligro debe espantar, sino a los que les gustaria administrar nuestro mundo como lo hace un propietario con su casa, de la que seriamos simplemente ocupantes ciegos e impotentes.

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. Law is the most sacred fetish of our time. From radicals to conservatives, there is no militant, activist or thinker who would consider doing without it. But the history of our fascination with law is long and complex, and reaches deeper into our culture than we might think. In After Law, Laurent de Sutter takes us on a journey to uncover the sources of our fascination. He shows that at a certain moment in our history a choice was made to treat law as a decisive feature of civilization, but this choice was neither obvious nor necessary. Other political, social, religious or cultural possibilities could have been chosen instead from ancient Egypt to Mesopotamia, from medieval Japan to China, from Islam to Judaism, other cultures have devised sophisticated tools to help people live together without having to deal with norms, rules and principles. This is a lesson worth reflecting on, especially at a time when the rule of law and the functioning of justice are increasingly showing their sinister side and their impotence. Is there life beyond law? "Why law may be less important than we think"-- Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Zustand: New. We have become superheroes. Nothing can resist us anymore: not persons, ideas, facts, realities, or beings. We owe our superhuman strength to a tool we have taken up that submits everything to the scrutiny of our judgment: critique. After its first formulation at the end of the sixteenth century, the project of critique spread from one sphere to another until it became almost universal: we have all of us been transformed by our equal capacity to judge, approve, and reject. If modernity is defined as the journey we have taken to move away from the myths and dogmas of the past, then critique, with its emphasis on reason and the autonomy of judgment, has been the lynchpin of modernity. Today, however, the critical project shows signs of exhaustion. We are beginning to realize that being right is useless, now that everyone can lay claim to the same power as we can. The democratization of reason, proceeding alongside the development of critique through modernity, has produced a stalemate: for every judgment that we pronounce, there is another opposing one - with grounds as solid as our own, and the same right to assert itself. Rather than elevating us above the world, critique has mired us in an impasse of claim and counter-claim. The age of critique is now over, argues Laurent de Sutter, and in its place we need to develop a postcritical form of thinking, one he calls "superweak," a form of thinking based not on establishing grounds, pronouncing judgment, and determining duty, but on welcoming possibility, exploring what the world has to offer, and cultivating a vertiginous appreciation for moving within a world less grounded and less bounded by the terms of critical reason.

Couverture souple. Zustand: Neuf. #Broché : 128 pages #Parution : février 2009 #Résumé : « La jurisprudence est la philosophie du droit, et procède par singularités, prolongement de singularités », disait Gilles Deleuze (1925-1995). La philosophie sait penser la loi. Mais le droit ne se laisse pas réduire aussi facilement. Ce prodigieux meccano impose son jeu à la pensée et s'offre ainsi comme un modèle possible, inventif et foisonnant, rigoureux pourtant, souverainement indifférent au jugement.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Aggregates and assesses Deleuze's claims about law, decision, judgement and related themes for the first timeDevelops a complete and self-sustaining Deleuzian philosophy of law where others have found only fragmentationExamines and uses various interdisciplinary connections, including law and literature, law and political theory, law and metaphysics, law and history of philosophy, and legal historyCritiques several approaches to the question of Deleuze's legal thoughtPromises to ignite debate and draw attention to the importance of legal theory for other fields, including social and political philosophyGilles Deleuze has provided the most fascinating account of law of the 20th century. Yet it is hidden in a just a few clues dispersed throughout his work and no complete reconstruction of it has ever been produced before. Laurent de Sutter gathers all the elements that compose Deleuze's philosophy of law and articulates them for the first time in a real system. The result is the most devastating critique of the very idea of law. But it is also surprising, praising the actual practice of jurisprudence. This is not simply a practice of judgment; it is a practice of radical creation and leads to an intriguing question: what if lawyers were the only true revolutionaries of our time?
