Foucault and Agamben on Augustine, Paradise and the Politics of Human Nature
This article focuses on Foucault's and Agamben's readings of Augustine's account of human nature and original sin. Foucault's analysis of Augustine's account of sexual acts in paradise, subordinated to will and devoid of lust, highlights the way it constitutes the model for the married couple, whose sexual acts are only acceptable if diverted by the will away from desire and towards the tasks of procreation. While Agamben rejects Augustine's doct…
Otherwise than quantum
The paper focuses on two problems with Alexander Wendt's unification of physical and social ontology on the basis of quantum theory. Firstly, by endowing social phenomena with an ontological foundation in physical reality defined in quantum terms Wendt risks reducing a plurality of worlds as ‘fields of sense’, ordered by their immanent rules, to the physical world ordered by the laws of quantum theory. Secondly, by defining his quantum social sci…

When did biopolitics begin? Actuality and potentiality in historical events
The article addresses the ongoing debate about the origins of biopolitics. While Foucault's analysis of biopolitics approached it as a modern rationality of government, Agamben's Homo Sacer series presented biopolitics as having a longer provenance, dating back to the antiquity. These polar positions are not mutually exclusive but coexist in these and other theories of biopolitics, which approach its object as both modern and ancient, having its …
Biopolitics After Truth: Knowledge, Power and Democratic Life
The rise of post-truth politics marks the most serious crisis of Western liberal democracy since the end of the Cold War. The decline of trust in expert knowledge and mainstream media, the rise of social media devoid of a gatekeeping function and the growth of covert external interference in electoral processes have led to fragmentation, polarization and destabilization of Western democratic systems. What makes post-truth politics so difficult to…
A Farewell to Homo Sacer? Sovereign Power and Bare Life in Agamben’s Coronavirus Commentary
The article addresses Giorgio Agamben's critical commentary on the global governance of the Covid-19 pandemic as a paradigm of his political thought. While Agamben's comments have been criticized as exaggerated and conspiratorial, they arise from the conceptual constellation that he has developed starting from the first volume of his Homo Sacer series. At the centre of this constellation is the relation between the concepts of sovereign power and…
The limits of subtractive politics: Agamben and Rousseau’s inheritance
Foucault and the birth of psychopolitics: Towards a genealogy of crisis governance
The article contributes to the genealogy of current tendencies in crisis governance by reconstructing Michel Foucault’s analysis of the application of the notion of crisis in 19th-century psychiatry. This analysis complements and corrects Reinhart Koselleck’s history that viewed crisis as originally a medical, judicial or theological concept that was transferred to the political domain in the 18th century. In contrast, Foucault highlights how the…
Why is there truth? Foucault in the age of post‐truth politics
Contemporary debates about post‐truth politics have raised the question of the complicity of Michel Foucault’s thought in the apparent decline of the authority of truth in Western democracies. In this article we probe this question in the analysis of Foucault’s theory of true discourses developed in his 1980‐1981 lecture course ‘Subjectivity and Truth’. In this course Foucault argues for non‐necessary and supplementary character of truths in rela…
Carl Schmitt
The work of Carl Schmitt has been a key influence on Agamben’s work, particularly his more political writings. Especially in the Anglo-American context, the discovery of Agamben’s work after the publication of the first volume of Homo Sacer coincided with a major revival of interest in Schmitt, both of which were partly motivated by the exceptionalist tendencies in US domestic and foreign policy in the aftermath of the 9/11 attacks. At least in t…
A thousand healths: Jean-Luc Nancy and the possibility of democratic biopolitics
This article addresses the relationship between ontology and politics in Jean-Luc Nancy’s theory of democracy by probing the implications of his latest ontological innovation, the concept of struction. We argue that Nancy’s democracy is a mode of politics that makes the radical pluralism of struction legitimate, opening and guarding a political space for the coexistence of the incommensurable. From this perspective, and despite Nancy’s own skepti…
Like a thief in the night: Agamben, Hobbes and the messianic transvaluation of security
The article addresses the reinterpretation of the problematic of security in the messianic turn in contemporary continental political thought. I focus on Giorgio Agamben’s reinterpretation of Hobbes’s Leviathan in Stasis, which restores an eschatological dimension to this foundational text of modern security politics. Hobbes’s commonwealth has been traditionally read as a secularized version of the katechon, a force that restrains the state of na…
Living à la mode: Form-of-life and democratic biopolitics in Giorgio Agamben’s The Use of Bodies
The publication of The Use of Bodies, the final volume in Giorgio Agamben’s Homo Sacer series, makes it possible to take stock of Agamben’s project as a whole. Having started with a powerful critique of the biopolitical sovereignty as the essence of modern politics, Agamben concludes his project with an affirmative vision of inoperative politics of form-of-life, in which life is not negated or sacrificed to the privileged form it must attain, but…
Foucault’s Affirmative Biopolitics: Cynic Parrhesia and the Biopower of the Powerless
While Foucault’s work on biopolitics continues to inspire diverse studies in a variety of disciplines, it has largely been missing from the debates on the possibility of “affirmative biopolitics” which have been primarily influenced by the work of Agamben and Esposito. This article restores Foucault’s work to these debates, proposing that his final lecture course at the Collège de France in 1983–1984 developed a paradigm of affirmative biopolitic…

The Routledge Handbook of Biopolitics
This chapter examines how gender equality has been transformed in European Union (EU) policymaking into a bioeconomic 'technology of power' tailored to optimise the life and productivity of European populations. It expresses that EU gender equality policy infused the idea of socially constructed sex with the precepts of human capital theory to rationalise the re-optimisation of population and productivity, especially in the context of the reconci…

The Biopolitics of Stalinism: Ideology and Life in Soviet Socialism
The Biopolitics of Stalinism is the first book to investigate Soviet socialism from a biopolitical perspective. While canonical theories of biopolitics of Michel Foucault, Giorgio Agamben and Roberto Esposito have focused on liberal and fascist rationalities of biopolitics, the case of Stalinism exemplifies an alternative mode of biopolitics, oriented less towards protecting life than towards transforming it in accordance with a transcendent idea…
Foucault, Freedom and Sovereignty
Against the prevailing interpretations which disqualify a Foucauldian approach from the discourse of freedom, this study offers a novel concept of political freedom and posits freedom as the primary axiological motif of Foucault's writing. Based on a new interpretation of the relation of Foucault's approach to the problematic of sovereignty, Sergei Prozorov both reconstructs ontology of freedom in Foucault's textual corpus and outlines the modali…

Ex Nihilo in Mundum: A Reply to Paipais
In this reply to Vassilios Paipais’s review of my Void Universalism books I focus on two main points of my disagreement with Paipais. The first concerns the possibility of deriving universalist axioms of world politics from the ontology of the void discussed in the first volume, Ontology and World Politics. While Paipais rejects such a possibility and posits a contentless ontology of the political, I argue that it is possible to derive from void …
Towards a Post-Hobbesian Political Community
The article addresses the attempts of contemporary continental philosophy to develop a politics that would move beyond the Hobbesian logic of the constitution of political community. In their readings of Hobbes, Roberto Esposito and Giorgio Agamben emphasize the nihilistic character of Hobbes’s approach to community. For Esposito, Hobbes’s commonwealth is legitimized by a prior negation of the originary human community in the construction of the …

Foucault and Soviet biopolitics
The article addresses the puzzling silence of the Foucaldian studies of biopolitics about Soviet socialism by revisiting Foucault’s own account of socialism in his 1970s work, particularly his 1975–6 course ‘Society Must Be Defended’. Foucault repeatedly denied the existence of an autonomous governmentality in socialism, demonstrating its dependence on the techniques of government developed in 19 th -century western Europe. For Foucault Soviet so…
X/Xs: Toward a General Theory of the Exception
Despite renewed interest in the Schmittian problematic of the exception as the constitutive principle of the political, the full significance of Schmitt's political philosophy remains underestimated. Starting from Schmitt's account of the relation between the constituted order and its constitutive principle, the decision on exception, this article outlines a broader discursive space that is here called the political ontology of exceptionalism and…
Russian conservatism in the Putin presidency: The dispersion of a hegemonic discourse
The article traces the emergence and development of conservative discourse in Russian politics from its initial articulation in the late 1990s to its present hegemony in Russian political space. Approaching conservatism in Foucauldian terms as a discursive 'system of dispersion', Russian conservative discourse is analysed not as a coherent ideological doctrine but as a space of discursive self-definition of its practitioners. From this perspectiv…

The other as past and present: Beyond the logic of ‘temporal othering’ in IR theory
The article ventures a critique of the logic of ‘temporal othering’ in contemporary International Relations (IR) theory. Originally articulated in the field of European integration, this logic presupposes a possibility for a political community to constitute its identity without any spatial delimitation by means of casting as Other its own past, whose repetition in the future it seeks to avoid. While the image of contemporary Europe as ‘othering’…

Powers of Life and Death: Biopolitics beyond Foucault
The problematic of biopolitics has become increasingly important in the social sciences. Starting from Michel Foucault’s genealogies of governance of sexuality, crime, and mental illness in modern Europe, which marked the shift from negative and repressive techniques of sovereign power toward the positive and productive power over life, the research on biopolitics has developed into a wider interdisciplinary orientation, addressing the rationalit…
Liberal Enmity: The Figure of the Foe in the Political Ontology of Liberalism
The article ventures a deconstruction of the contemporary liberal `politics of enmity'. Against the attribution to Carl Schmitt of the valorisation of the extreme relation of political enmity, we argue that the asymmetrical `ultra-politics', in which the `just enemy', existentially equal to the Self, is supplanted by the image of a morally reprehensible `foe' is decidedly un-Schmittian and rather characterises the liberal mode of enmity. Our deco…

Living Ideas and Dead Bodies: The Biopolitics of Stalinism
Aside from casual references to Soviet biopolitics in the work of Foucault, Agamben, and Esposito, the theoretical literature on biopolitics has largely ignored the Soviet experience, while empirical research in Russian studies has rarely addressed biopolitics. The article examines the experience of Stalinism as an important case for the study of biopolitics that helps resolve a problem preoccupying scholars from Foucault onward: the proximity of…
Pornography and Profanation in the Political Philosophy of Giorgio Agamben
The article addresses the critical strategy of profanation in the philosophy of Giorgio Agamben, focusing on the example of pornography. Agamben's references to pornography as a site of radical political transformation have recently been criticized as abstruse, vacuous or absurd. Moreover, his own work on the concentration camps in the Homo Sacer series has been disparagingly referred to as 'pornography of horror'. This article ventures to refute…
Generic universalism in world politics: Beyond international anarchy and the world state
Even though the notion of ‘world politics’ has become increasingly widespread in the discipline of International Relations, its deployment in the disciplinary discourse has been highly problematic. This article argues that the impasse of the discourse on world politics is owing to its commitment to a political ontology of identitarian pluralism, most forcefully articulated in the work of Carl Schmitt, which limits the political imagination to the…

Pussy Riot and the Politics of Profanation: Parody, Performativity, Veridiction
The article addresses the performances of the Russian feminist-punk band Pussy Riot as a paradigm of the politics of profanation developed in the recent work of Giorgio Agamben. Drawing on Agamben's genealogies of the concepts of parody, blasphemy and profanation, the article challenges the depoliticising interpretation of Pussy Riot's scandalous performance at the Cathedral of Christ the Saviour in Moscow in February 2012 as a blasphemous parody…
Why Giorgio Agamben is an optimist
The article takes Giorgio Agamben’s declaration of his optimism with regard to the possibilities of global political transformation as a point of departure for the inquiry into the affirmative aspects of Agamben’s political thought, frequently overshadowed by his more famous critical claims. We reconstitute three principles grounding Agamben’s optimism that pertain respectively to the total crisis of the contemporary biopolitical apparatuses, the…

Giorgio Agamben and the End of History: Inoperative Praxis and the Interruption of the Dialectic
The article presents a conception of the end of history, developed on the basis of Giorgio Agamben's critical engagement with Alexandre Kojève's reading of Hegel. Departing from Agamben's concept of inoperosity as an originary feature of the human condition, we argue that the proper or 'second' end of history consists not in the fulfilment of its dialectical process but rather in the radical interruption of the dialectic that terminates the teleo…

The unrequited love of power: Biopolitical investment and the refusal of care
Despite its increasing prominence in critical political and IR theory, the significance of the Foucauldian problematic of biopolitics remains underestimated. The frequent conflation of paradigmatically distinct sovereign and biopolitical forms of power, inspired by influential readings of Agamben and Hardt and Negri, results in increasingly incoherent applications of the concept of biopolitics. This is particularly evident in the attempts to theo…
