Rosalyn Diprose and Ewa Ziarek show us that biopolitics along with sexism, racism and political theology seeks to control to women's reproductive agency. They reconfigure Arendt's philosophy of natality (birth rate)in terms of biopolitical theory and feminism to defend women's reproductive choices and democratic pluralism.
Rosalyn Diprose and Ewa Plonowska Ziarek provide a reconfiguration of Hannah Arendt''s philosophy of natality from the perspective of biopolitical and feminist theory. They show that Arendt provides new ways of contesting biopolitical threats to human plurality and the way biopolitics, along with sexism, racism and political theology target women''s reproductive agency. They also extend Arendt''s account of collective political action to include consideration of political hospitality, responsibility and story-telling as ways of countering the harms of biopower.
The book offers an insightful account of the political ontology of Hannah Arendt and forms new dialogues between her and major 20th- and 21st-century thinkers including Foucault, Agamben, Nancy, Kristeva, Esposito, Derrida, Levinas and Cavarero.
