Book Sovereignty  Knowledge  Law

    Book Details:
  • Author : Panu Minkkinen
  • Publisher : Routledge
  • Release : 2009-05-22
  • ISBN : 1134028598
  • Pages : 366 pages

Download or read book Sovereignty Knowledge Law written by Panu Minkkinen and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2009-05-22 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sovereignty, Knowledge, Law investigates the notion of sovereignty from three different, but related perspectives: as a legal question in relation to the sovereign state, as a political question in relation to sovereign power, and as a metaphysical question in relation to sovereign self-knowledge. The varied and interchangeable uses of legal sovereignty, political sovereignty and metaphysical sovereignty in contemporary debates have resulted in a situation where the word ‘sovereignty’ itself has become something of a non-concept. Panu Minkkinen shows here how these three perspectives have informed one another, by addressing their shared relationship to law, and to the ‘autocephalous’ function of sovereignty; that is, the attempt to provide a single source and foundation for law, power, and self-knowledge. Through an effort to domesticate the intrinsically ‘heterocephalous’ nature of power, the juridical and jurisprudential aim has been to confine power within the closed vertical hierarchy of traditional legal thinking. Sovereignty, Knowledge, Law thus elaborates this heterocephaly, proposing new understandings of sovereignty, as well as of law and of legal scholarship.

Book Public Things

    Book Details:
  • Author : Bonnie Honig
  • Publisher : Fordham Univ Press
  • Release : 2017-03-01
  • ISBN : 0823276422
  • Pages : 141 pages

Download or read book Public Things written by Bonnie Honig and published by Fordham Univ Press. This book was released on 2017-03-01 with total page 141 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the contemporary world of neoliberalism, efficiency is treated as the vehicle of political and economic health. State bureaucracy, but not corporate bureaucracy, is seen as inefficient, and privatization is seen as a magic cure for social ills. In Public Things: Democracy in Disrepair, Bonnie Honig asks whether democracy is possible in the absence of public services, spaces, and utilities. In other words, if neoliberalism leaves to democracy merely electoral majoritarianism and procedures of deliberation while divesting democratic states of their ownership of public things, what will the impact be? Following Tocqueville, who extolled the virtues of “pursuing in common the objects of common desires,” Honig focuses not on the demos but on the objects of democratic life. Democracy, as she points out, postulates public things—infrastructure, monuments, libraries—that citizens use, care for, repair, and are gathered up by. To be “gathered up” refers to the work of D. W. Winnicott, the object relations psychoanalyst who popularized the idea of “transitional objects”—the toys, teddy bears, or favorite blankets by way of which infants come to understand themselves as unified selves with an inside and an outside in relation to others. The wager of Public Things is that the work transitional objects do for infants is analogously performed for democratic citizens by public things, which press us into object relations with others and with ourselves. Public Things attends also to the historically racial character of public things: public lands taken from indigenous peoples, access to public goods restricted to white majorities. Drawing on Hannah Arendt, who saw how things fabricated by humans lend stability to the human world, Honig shows how Arendt and Winnicott—both theorists of livenesss—underline the material and psychological conditions necessary for object permanence and the reparative work needed for a more egalitarian democracy.

Book The Gatekeeper

Download or read book The Gatekeeper written by Ilgın Deniz Akseloglu and published by . This book was released on 2020-02 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: She wanted to stop time when she was ten years old and stopped eating in order not to grow up. Lene Marie Fossen rejected the linear progression of time that forced her to go through puberty. She chose to be open about her disease and found her means of expression in photography. Her unabashed self-portraits bear witness to an inner conflict and are both cruel and beautiful. Lene Marie Fossen sadly passed away on October 22, 2019; she was only thirty-three years old. The present publication pays tribute to Fossen as an artist, but also reveals the difficult path she chose to take - and that anorexia is a serious illness and cannot be trivialized.

Book Subjectivity  Citizenship and Belonging in Law

Download or read book Subjectivity Citizenship and Belonging in Law written by Anne Griffiths and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2016-10-04 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of articles critically examines legal subjectivity and ideas of citizenship inherent in legal thought. The chapters offer a novel perspective on current debates in this area by exploring the connections between public and political issues as they intersect with more intimate sets of relations and private identities. Covering issues as diverse as autonomy, vulnerability and care, family and work, immigration control, the institution of speech, and the electorate and the right to vote, they provide a broader canvas upon which to comprehend more complex notions of citizenship, personhood, identity and belonging in law, in their various ramifications.
