Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. No less than the internal combustion engine, the transistor, or the silicon chip, barbed wire is a quintessentially modern invention, a product that has influenced the lives of millions of people across the globe since its invention in the late nineteenth century. Now in paperback, Barbed Wire: A Political History demonstrates that the invention of barbed wire was a major breakthrough with far-reaching consequences. Cheap and mass-produced, barbed wire accomplished what no other product did before it, or has since done more effectively: the control of vast amounts of open space.Razac describes how barbed wire has been employed in the harnessing of nature, brutal mass warfare, political conquest and repression, and genocide. In a narrative that spans the history of the American frontier, the trenches of World War I, the Holocaust, and beyond, Barbed Wire: A Political History looks unflinchingly at a central and fascinating strand of modern life. Now in paperback, "Barbed Wire" demonstrates that the invention of barbed wire was a major breakthrough with far-reaching consequences.

Condition: New. Idioma/Language: Español. Al detallar el papel decisivo que el alambre de espino ha tenido en tres de las más grandes catástrofes de la modernidad -la conquista del Oeste y el genocidio de los nativos de Norteamérica, la Primera Guerra Mundial y el exterminio nazi- pero también al cartografiar sus usos actuales -marca de la propiedad privada, cierre de los centros penitenciarios y de internamiento, remate de las vallas en las fronteras-, Razac analiza, siguiendo el pensamiento de Foucault, la creciente violencia en la gestión política de espacios y poblaciones. Todo ello es obra de un dispositivo simple y austero, aunque tremendamente letal. Se revela así la paradoja de la violencia moderna: las mejores herramientas de ejercicio del poder son aquellas que invierten la menor cantidad de energía posible y logran sin embargo los mayores efectos de dominación. *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.
