Acclamation as political form of communication has been used to understand political phenomena by a range of 20th century thinkers and recently has been used to analyze social media. However, if the notion of social media as acclamation is to be fruitful, it should be closely connected to inherent features of social media as technology and should b...
Dans l’introduction de Stanze, Giorgio Agamben rappelle le projet de « poésie universelle » du Cercle d’Iéna qui visait « l’[abolition de] la distinction entre poésie et discipline critico-philologique ». La qualification de critique peut dès lors être seulement conférée aux œuvres qui accueillent leur propre négation, qui se donnent pour objet ce ...
My project seeks to develop a theological critique of the political aspects of religious life through a reading of the political theology of Giorgio Agamben. I will confront his thought with Dominican political theologies, specifically those of Henri-Dominique Lacordaire OP, Marie-Dominique Chenu OP, and Herbert McCabe OP. This project consists of ...
In this investigation we propose to delve into the concept of ecocide and its ethical-political implications, putting it in relation to Giorgio Agamben’s concepts of sovereignty and state of exception. The concept of exception, in the legal and philosophical tradition, refers to the scope of people’s lives and not to the damage caused to life in na...

Against this problematic background, this article unfolds in two parts.

Cilj diplomskega dela je ustvariti preobrat v razumevanju begunskih taborišč – stran od tehničnega pogleda na prostor izrednega stanja k pogledu na prostor bivanja, ki ima mnogotere vzporednosti z vsakdanjimi prostori mest. Medtem ko se mnogi avtorji v svojih analizah osredotočajo na specifične vidike taborišča (ekonomija, zdravstvo, arhitektura, p...
Resumen En el presente artículo se presenta una interpretación de la lectura agambeniana del asunto de la “vida privada” de Guy Debord tal como es considerada en el último volumen de la saga Homo Sacer a partir de su contextualización dentro de la obra tardía de Agamben. En primer lugar, se analiza la mención de “Guy” en Autorretrato en el estudio,...
Resumen El museo, en la perspectiva crítica tanto de Guy Debord como de Giorgio Agamben, es señalado como aquel espacio donde la obra de arte se convierte en un objeto de mera contemplación y en un objeto desvitalizado, en la medida en que pierde su conexión con el mundo vivo y el espacio común a todos los hombres. Es decir, es señalado como un esp...
Biopolitics (bio-power, bio-history) is a notion of Foucault’s that Derrida adresses indirectly, targeting Agamben as proxy. To begin with, Foucault himself seems indeed to have backed out from expressing himself in these terms after 1978 and The Birth of Biopolitics. A study of his texts shows that Foucault’s idea of biopolitics or bio-power is cl...
