Homo Sacer by Giorgio Agamben

One of Italy's most original philosophers aims to connect the problem of pure possibility, potentiality, and power with the problem of political and social ethics in a context where the latter has lost its previous religious, metaphysical, and cultural grounding.
"Agamben's intuition, chronicle and meditation are fascinating"—The Review of Politics
"The story of homo sacer is certainly worth reading because of its suggestiveness and provocations."—Modernism/Modernity
Giorgio Agamben teaches philosophy at the University of Venice.
