Is a protected democracy still a democracy? Why does politics delegate important decisions to law and the (bio-)sciences? How is law related to life? Since the first edition of Eva Geulen’s introductory volume on Giorgio Agamben, the philosopher has posed new questions in his expansive body of work. Thus, this completely revised new edition takes this into account by explaining the texts that have since been translated into German. The new edition also addresses Agamben’s examination of a theological genealogy of economics (including “Profanazioni,” “Che cos’è un dispositivo?”, and “Angeli”).
