"Broadening biopower beyond its Nazi encampments in order to build a critique of liberalism, Timothy CCampbell argues that modern politics captures life through invasive technologies of communication and consumption that promise protection from mortality, disability, boredom, and loneliness. Campbell links mass media and bioengineering to the birth of a global petty bourgeoisie defined by a terrifying lack of distance and the relentless dismantling of community. This compelling, powerfully argued book should be read by anyone interested in the futures of collective life in the age of smart bombs and cloud computing." -Julia Reinhard Lupton, author of Thinking with Shakespeare: Essays on Politics and Life
Timothy C. Campbell is professor of Italian in the Department of Romance Studies at Cornell University.
