AU - Vardoulakis, Dimitris

Y1 - 2017
N2 - Vardoulakis traces the function of violence in Balibar's theory of the subject/citizen. Doing so, Vardoulakis brings together areas of Balibar's philosophy that are usually discussed separately, such as his work on Spinoza, his anthropology and his lectures on violence. Finally, Vardoulakis uses the presentation of the way violence figures in all these fields to offer a critique of Balibar's conceptions of democracy and power.
