Synopsis

Achille Mbembe's 'Necropolitics' explores how sovereignty is exercised through the power to dictate who may live and who must die. This seminal work examines the contemporary forms of subjugation that extend beyond traditional biopolitics, delving into the mechanisms of control and destruction in modern societies. It offers a critical analysis of how power operates in contexts of war, terror, and racialized violence.
