Being a Foreigner in Philosophy
The question of diversity, both with regard to the demographic profile of philosophers as well as the content of philosophical inquiry, has received much attention in recent years. One figure that has gone relatively unnoticed is that of the foreigner. To the extent that philosophers have taken the foreigner as their object of inquiry, they have focused largely on challenges nonnative speakers of English face in a profession conducted predominant…
Foucault und die Realitätsbedingungen leiblicher Erfahrung
Politik handelt wesentlich von Körpern: Sie regiert und hierarchisiert Körper, sie unterscheidet jene Körper, die öffentlich sprechen dürfen, von solchen, die nicht vernehmbar sind.

The Place of Sovereignty
This article addresses the relationship between sovereignty, biopolitics and governmentality in the work of Giorgio Agamben, Judith Butler, and Michel Foucault.

However, faced with processes of economic globalization as well as legal and political universalism, contemporary political theory struggles to account for the exercise of state power in terms of the traditional understanding of sovereignty. This survey article reviews the most influential conceptualizations of sovereignty in contemporary continental politic…
