Description

Explore the complex relationship between power and recognition in Sovereign Excess, Legitimacy and Resistance. Published by Routledge, this work examines the nature of modern sovereignty and the arbitrary actions of power. Drawing on ideas from Pasolini regarding the anarchic qualities of power, the text investigates how authority functions in the modern world. This book looks at the fragile existence of power and how it depends on the recognition of those it governs. It introduces the concept of "political theurgy," comparing the way power seeks glory and validation to a divine command that seeks to be loved even by those it affects most deeply. For readers interested in law, political theory, and the mechanics of authority, this text provides a deep look into the murderous capital of modern sovereignty and the tension between command and resistance.
