Description
In this new book, Dimitris Vardoulakis asks how it is possible to think of a politics that is not commensurate with sovereignty.
For such a politics, he argues, sovereignty is defined not in terms of the exception but as the different ways in which violence is justified.
Vardoulakis shows how it is possible to deconstruct the various justifications of violence.
Such dejustifications can take place only by presupposing an other to sovereignty, which Vardoulakis identifies with radical democracy.
In doing so, Sovereignty and Its Other puts forward both a novel critique of sovereignty and an original philosophical theory of democratic practice.
