Critiquing Sovereign Violence: Law, Biopolitics, Bio-Juridicalism
Rae, Gavin (Associate Professor, Universidad Complutense de Madrid, Spain)
Gavin Rae offers an original approach to sovereign violence by looking at a wide range of thinkers, which he organises into three models. Benjamin, Schmitt, Arendt, Deleuze and Guattari form the radical-juridical perspective; Foucault and Agamben the biopolitical; Derrida the bio-juridical – which Rae argues produces the most nuanced account.
