Sergei Prozorov challenges the assumption that the biopolitical governance means the end of democracy, arguing for a positive synthesis of biopolitics and democracy. He develops a vision of democratic biopolitics where diverse forms of life can coexist on the basis of their reciprocal recognition as free, equal and in common.
Develops the first positive synthesis of democracy and biopolitics, supported by examples from our lived experiences. Critically re-engages with the canonical theories of biopolitics from Foucault, Agamben and Esposito to challenge the assumption that the biopolitical governance means the end of democracy. Introduces new philosophical voices into the discussion of biopolitics: Nancy, Badiou and Lefort. Develops a vision of democratic biopolitics where diverse forms of life can coexist on the basis of their reciprocal recognition as free, equal and in common.
