Paperback. Condition: New. Not mere biological entities, bodies are conceptual and political battlegrounds, either instruments of domination or avenues of liberation. Throughout history and across cultures, bodies have been used to express social, racial, class, and gender differences. They have also been imagined as means: means for reproducing life and labor, means understood to be inscribed within a ""natural"" order. This concept has run through the entire history of Western metaphysics and culture, and its persistence and development has contributed to the establishment of cultural and political dominance by Western rationality and the white men who conceived it.This book asks us to reconsider the theoretical and political power of means in relation to bodies. Stimilli problematizes the role of means in a hypertechnological era in which politics has come to be seen merely as administration, with no pretence of elaborating higher meanings or purposes. Are means, she asks, truly instruments subordinate to purposes unrelated to them, or could they be something else?In a philosophical investigation into the meaning of means, Stimilli elaborates the political power of bodies as means, arguing that they are never neutral and lie at the origin of collective phenomena whose potential is still to be explored. From the United States to South America and Europe, from North Africa to the Middle East and beyond, bodies are at the center of enormous transnational and intersectional movements as non-instrumental means for new forms of social reproduction. A new sexuation of the world is now the order of the day.…

Rustica (tapa blanda). Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: Nuevo. 01. Como consecuencia de la gran crisis financiera de 2008, a los paísesendeudados se les impuso un régimen de austeridad , es decir, debíanajustar y ahorrar para reducir la deuda. Pero qué es la deuda Larespuesta de Elettra Stimilli es contundente: es la manifestación deuna forma de poder represivo basado en un sistema de exclusión en elque participan tanto el Estado como el mercado que se utiliza comoherramienta para la gobernanza global. Es un dispositivo de coerciónque convierte a los deudores en culpables. De este modo, Stimillirecurre las palabras proféticas de Walter Benjamin sobre elcapitalismo como un culto endeudante , que no es expiatorio sinoculpabilizante para poner al descubierto los nodos teóricoscontenidos en la relación semántica entre deuda y culpa . Así, este trabajo intenta entender el problema de la deuda en un contexto máscomplejo que el de la ciencia económica, revelando los mecanismos deuna teología política. LIBRO.…

Condition: New. Idioma/Language: Español. La cuestión de la deuda y cómo esta afecta nuestras vidas se ha vuelto un asunto inaplazable. Este libro se pregunta por las raíces del fenómeno. Como si se tratase de un estado previo que ningún tipo de decisión consciente está en condiciones de enmendar, hoy prevalece la impresión generalizada de que toda forma de vida se configura como una respuesta a un tipo de existencia dominada por la deuda, la culpa o la falta. Además de razones de índole material, el hecho de que la economía sea capaz de sustraer al singular y a la comunidad el control de su propio destino también tiene su proyección en un plano cultural, religioso y filosófico. Reconocer todos estos indicios bajo las sucesivas máscaras que se han ido incorporando a lo largo de historia de Occidente es el desafío al que, con la esperanza de atisbar cierto tipo de cura, se encomiendan estas páginas. ELETTRA STIMILLI es autora de múltiples ensayos sobre la relación entre la religión y la política. Es también responsable de la única biografía que existe sobre Jacob Taubes. En 2011 publicó Il debito del vivente. Ascesi e capitalismo (Premio Feronia 2013). Su libro más reciente es Debito e colpa (2015). En la actualidad trabaja e investiga en el Departamento de Filosofía de la Universidad de La Sapienza de Roma. *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.

Paperback. Condition: New. Italian philosophical and political thought has been receiving ever-growing attention in international debates. This has mainly been driven by the revival of the Italian neo- and post-Marxist tradition and of the Italian interpretation of French Theory, in particular of Foucault's biopolitics. So, is it now possible to speak of an 'Italian Theory' or an 'Italian difference' in the context of philosophical and political thought? This book collects together leading names in Italian critical thought to examine the significant contributions that they are giving to contemporary political debates. The first part of the book draws a possible genealogy of the so-called 'Italian Theory', questioning the possibility of grouping together many authors, and political and theoretical approaches which are often reciprocally in conflict. The second part of the book presents certain categories that have become characteristic of Italian Thought for their original interpretation and use by some of the authors recognized as part of the Italian Theory tradition, from biopolitics and political theology to crisis and immanence.…
