Once imported to Australia as rodent controllers, cats are now regarded as responsible for a second wave of mammal extinction across the continent. Utilising the Foucauldian concept of biopolitics, we investigate critically the institutional field of cat regulation in Australia, exemplified by the Western Australian Cat Act 2011 and the Federal Environment Minister’s 10-year campaign to eradicate feral cats. Analysis of the biopolitical dispositif of ferality, and its elements of knowledge, subjectivation and objectivation and power processes, illustrates the dispositions through which what mi

Michel Foucault and Roberto Esposito have been two of the most influential biopolitical thinkers of the twentieth century, but their respective approaches to the relationship between life and politics do not address the main problem of the Anthropocene: the relationship between life and energy. Thus, this article analyzes the biophysical limits of biopolitics in the works of Foucault and Roberto Esposito and, to overcome these limits, it proposes to analyze the physiological assembly of the devices of power within the energetic flows of social metabolisms.

This essay responds to German theorist Thomas Lemke’s call for a conversation between two distinct lines of reception of Foucault’s concept of biopolitics. The first line is comprised of sweeping historical perspectives on biopolitics, such as those of Giorgio Agamben and Antonio Negri, and the second is comprised of the more temporally focused perspectives of theorists such as Paul Rabinow, Nikolas Rose, and Catherine Waldby, whose biopolitical analyses concentrate on recent biotechnologies such as genetic techniques and the biobanking of human tissues.

Much attention has been paid to the growing level of polarization at both the party level and within the American public, particularly since the late 1970's.

Scholarship has been lacking, however, a microlevel analysis of the polarization of elite discourse, its motivations, and its effects on the American voter.

At the root of the marginalizations of certain forms of life, even to the point where they are deemed unworthy of living, are often mishearings or failures to listen.

Specifically, it demonstrates how the prism of aurality sharpens the affinities and disagreements between Foucauldian and post-workerist Italian biopolitical theory on the one hand and French deconstru

Abstract:
This chapter develops the book’s comparative biopolitical approach. The chapter begins by taking a step back and looking at Michel Foucault’s more general understanding of power as productive and his notion of government as the ‘conduct of conduct’. Thereafter, the chapter closes in on some of the central ideas and key concepts of the Foucauldian theory of biopolitics, which leads up to the book’s conceptualization of ‘neoliberal biopolitics’. The chapter then makes a quick turn to Georgio Agamben’s different approach to biopolitics and his concerns with the hierarchical separation of life. From there the chapter proceeds to the relationship between biopolitics and inequality, which paves the way for the book’s conception of the ‘biopolitics of inequality’. Ultimately, the chapter fleshes out the three dimensions of our comparative biopolitical approach – biopolitical rationalities, biopolitical techniques, and biopolitical effects – and the therewith associated sets of analytical questions that guide our exploration between and across sites of ESD implementation

Abstract:
Proposing the notion of “shatter” to describe sound’s dispersive and disruptive force, this chapter explores aurality’s imbrication in the thought and politics of life. Focusing on recent continental political philosophy, it examines the intersections and debates between Foucauldian and post-workerist biopolitical theory on the one hand and French deconstruction on the other, focusing in particular on the points of contention between Derrida and Agamben. It argues that philosophy approaches life by way of sound even while sound tends to shatter the rational logos and thereby threatens the self-identity and sovereignty of philosophy. Sound is thus what animates philosophy by exposing it to risk and adventure.

Abstract:
Abstract This chapter engages the temporal, as opposed to merely spatial, borders of Latinx immigration and detention, as well as evolving forms of punishment, attrition, and modes of longer-term wasting—such as the indefinite exploitation of temporary labor. Treating Foucauldian discipline and biopolitics as synchronic, rather than diachronic, the chapter disturbs the temporal stages he assigns to each while also illuminating nonlinear, dynamic race-making processes that go missing when migration is addressed with respect to territoriality alone. This, in turn, allows us to see how discipline and biopolitics function simultaneously for racialized ends. The strategy of casting racial/ethnic others as a viral epidemic to be documented, quarantined, and even exterminated—and to justify present-day states of emergency—resonates with what Foucault referred to as the “plague dream.” At the same time, the foreshortened life-spans of Latinx immigrants are also employed to shore up endemic contingencies and random events for the benefit of white time. The immunity paradigm provides interpretive insight into the simultaneity of disciplinary and biopolitical powers, while also illuminating the apparent contradiction in American politics whereby immigrants are alternately regarded as both a cure and a disease over time. The chapter closes by drawing sustenance from Latinx resistance, which is figured in temporal terms by dramatizing the role of immigrant presence in the prevailing temporal order.

Considers the status of reproduction and abortion for the two leading proponents of the thanatopolitical interpretations of Foucauldian biopolitics: Italian philosophers Giorgio Agamben and Roberto Esposito. Re-evaluates a number of feminist critiques of their work. Argues for a new understanding of abortion, by means not of an application of Esposito and Agamben, but through an ‘inversion’ of some of their resources. For example, the chapter argues for an understanding of politicized abortion in terms of an “inversion’ of a term extensively discussed by Agamben, the state of exception. Proposes this approach as an alternative to other means of feminist critique of these philosophers.

Abstract:
The Introduction defines the alegal in terms of Schmitt’s concept of sovereignty and Foucauldian biopolitics. It shows how this positioning is integral to dislodging Okinawa from the traditional area studies paradigm and instead uses it to theorize the formation of a new postwar global network of sovereignty between the U.S. and Japan. In particular, it foregrounds the biopolitical dimensions of this network in which Japanese politicians protested violation of Japanese sovereignty by the U.S. military symbolically through the trope of sexual violence. Concerned with the ability to secure Japan as an economic partner, the U.S. responded by reducing its military presence in the mainland and transferring troops to Okinawa in the late 1950s. It sensed a deeply-entrenched cultural aversion to sexual contact around the bases, which, this book argues, was abhorred because it interfered with the formation of a Japanese middle class. By revisiting the writings of Japanese Marxists such as Uno Kōzō and Tosaka Jun, the Introduction defines the contours of a biopolitical state concerned with developing a Japanese middle class along the norms of patriarchal monoethnicity. It is this kind of state from which Okinawa was excluded, and to this state which it ambivalently sought to return.
