Paperback. Zustand: New. Our contemporary mode of life is characterised by what Serene Richards in Biopolitics as a System of Thought calls: Smart Being. Smart Being believes in the solutions of techno-capital where living is always at stake and directed to survival. Armed with this concept, this book examines how we arrived at this mode of being and asks how it could be that, while the material conditions of our lives have increasingly worsened, our capacities for effective political action, understood as the capacity for transforming our existing social relations, appear to be diminishing.Drawing from jurists and philosophers such as Pierre Legendre, Yan Thomas, Giorgio Agamben, Michel Foucault and Gilles Deleuze, Richards argues that biopolitics intervenes at the most minute level of our everyday lives. She argues that there are conceptual truths presupposed in the mode of biopolitics' functioning, for instance that life can be assigned a value for the purpose of intervention, abandonment, or death, which have implications for our politics. In exciting engagements with political movements such as the post-May 1968 Mouvement des travailleurs Arabes (MTA), Richards shows how demands to transform our system of social relations are undermined by institutional models that proffer to offer rights protection while simultaneously annihilating the living altogether. Through a reappraisal of law, governance and capital, Richards seeks to reconceptualise our collectivity of thought, arguing for a politics of destitution that could form the basis of a communism to come.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - This book provides the first comprehensive introduction to the erudite, eccentric and expansive work of Pierre Legendre (1930-2023), legal philologist and historian, Professor of Law at the University of Paris I and Director of Studies at L'École Pratique des Hautes Études.Author and editor of some 30 books and 4 films, his oeuvre defies definition or circumscription. Having devoted his early career to the medieval glossators of Roman and Canon law before encountering Freud and the incendiary lectures of Jacques Lacan, he develops a psychoanalytic theory of law as the dogmatic structure, symbolic mainstay and affective straightjacket of Western civilization. Focusing on the mythological foundations of law and governance, on the visual transmission of law and the emotional capture of the subject, Legendre delivers a profound critique of the doctrines of managerial efficiency, communication, and administrative jargon that dominate the institutions of government. In this volume, 10 international scholars address themselves to the many novel dimensions of Legendre's work.This book will be of interest to scholars and students of legal theory, jurisprudence, socio-legal studies, legal history, politics and social science.…
