Описание: Does the poststructuralist decentring of the foundational subject permit a coherent account of agency? Gavin Rae shows that the problematic status of agency caused by the poststructuralist decentring of the subject is a prime concern for poststructuralist thinkers. First, Rae shows how this plays out in the thinking of Deleuze, Derrida and Foucault. He then demonstrates that it is with those poststructuralists associated with and influenced by Lacanian psychoanalysis that this issue most clearly comes to the fore. He goes on to reveal that the conceptual schema of Cornelius Castoriadis best explains how the founded subject is capable of agency.

Описание: Analyses the history of Western conceptions of evil, showing it to be remarkably complex, differentiated and contested Charting a sweeping history of evil within the Western philosophical tradition, Gavin Rae shows that the problem of evil--as a conceptual problem--came to the fore with the rise of monotheism. Rae traces the problem of evil from early and Medieval Christian philosophy to modern philosophy, German Idealism, post-structuralism and contemporary analytic philosophy and secularisation.
Описание: Gavin Rae offers an original approach to sovereign violence by looking at a wide range of thinkers, which he organises into three models. Benjamin, Schmitt, Arendt, Deleuze and Guattari form the radical-juridical perspective; Foucault and Agamben the biopolitical; Derrida the bio-juridical which Rae argues produces the most nuanced account.
Описание: Criticises the historically dominant classic-juridical model of sovereign violence and defends a bio-juridical model instead
Works across the disciplines of critical theory, political theory, biopolitical theory, poststructuralism and deconstruction
Develops three models - radical-juridical, biopolitical, and bio-juridical - to understand contemporary debates
Situates current thinking in relation to the classic-juridical model, thereby linking contemporary debates to historical ones
Moves beyond the dominant biopolitical model to a bio-juridical paradigm
Gavin Rae offers an original approach to sovereign violence by looking at a wide range of thinkers, which he organises into three models. Benjamin, Schmitt, Arendt, Deleuze and Guattari form the radical-juridical perspective; Foucault and Agamben the biopolitical; Derrida the bio-juridical - which Rae argues produces the most nuanced account.
Rae engages with new translations of 'The Beast and the Sovereign' and 'The Death Penalty' to show that Derrida offers a radical and alternative angle in which violence is placed between law and life, simultaneously creating and regulating each through the other.

Описание: Privatising Capital examines the historical development of Poland’s public sector and its welfare state. Their infrastructure, services and employees add up to a form of public capital, upon which the vast majority of society is dependent. The book describes the ongoing attempts to financialise and commodify this public capital and examines how this occurs in the areas of health, education and pensions. It also analyses the impact of public capital on the ideas and opinions of the population and how it affects contemporary ideologies and politics in Poland.
