Where Are We Now?

- The Epidemic as Politics

Bag om Where Are We Now?

Renowned Italian philosopher Giorgio Agamben collects all of his fierce, passionate, and deeply personal interventions regarding the 2020 health emergency as it played out in Italy and across the world. Alongside and beyond accusations, these texts variously reflect upon the great transformation affecting Western democracies. In the name of biosecurity and health, the model of bourgeois democracyΓÇötogether with its rights, parliaments, and constitutionsΓÇöis everywhere surrendering to a new despotism where citizens seem to accept unprecedented limitations to their freedoms. This leads to the urgency of the volumeΓÇÖs title: Where Are We Now? For how long will we accept living in a constantly extended state of exception, the end of which remains impossible to see?
