Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. This book examines how the Covid-19 pandemic can be described as a biopolitical crisis, taking into account a fact often overlooked by commentators: Covid-19 is a zoonosis, a disease transmissible between animal species. The Sars-Cov2 virus causing this respiratory disease circulated in bats before passing to humans under as-yet mysterious conditions, and it was transmitted from humans to other species, notably mink and deer. Building on Michel Foucaults revival of the term biopolitics and related notions (disciplinary power, pastoral power, cynegetic power), this book traces a set of public health measures taken over the last two centuries to control epidemics. It underlines how the need to conserve virus strains in order to identify and anticipate their mutations has given rise to cryopolitics, a set of techniques aimed at suspending the living in order to defer death. The book then questions the emancipatory scope of this cryopolitics by examining interspecies solidarity built by the warning signals sent by animals to humans about coming threats, be they pandemics, natural disasters, or climate change. By blurring the boundaries between the wild and the domestic resulting from the process of domestication, the politics of zoonoses relies on sentinels who preserve the memory of signs from the past to prepare living beings for future threats by involving them in a common ideal. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Condition: New. This book traces the contributions of the Lévy-Bruhl family to social and political thought and expertise in 20th-century France, shaping the anticipation of economic and health crises.How French Moderns Think tells the story of the French sociological tradition through four generations of the Lévy-Bruhl family: Lucien, who founded the Institute of Ethnology at the University of Paris; his son Henri, who founded the Institute of Roman Law; his grandson Raymond, who took part in the creation of the National Institute of Statistics and Economic Studies; and his great-grandson Daniel, a vaccine specialist at the Institute of Public Health. This family history casts a new light on the philosophical debates about "primitive mentality" and the "savage mind." By drawing on the expert knowledge inherent in this family genealogy, the articulation between the logical and the "pre-logical" is not a cognitive question but rather a problem of anticipating unpredictable events. By relating Lévy-Bruhl's engagements from the Dreyfus Affair to the Minister of Armaments during the First World War, Keck narrates the confrontation of the socialist ideal of justice and truth with the French colonial experience and its transformations in global technologies preparing for pandemics.

Couverture Souple. Condition: Bon (Voir photos). ___Textes et commentaires de Arnaud Bouaniche, Frédéric Keck et Frédéric Worms___Nous présentons ici une introduction à la lecture des Deux sources de la morale et de la religion d Henri Bergson, publié en 1932. Cet ouvrage est le moins fréquenté des livres de Bergson : on le ramène à quelques formules sur l opposition du " clos " et de " l ouvert ", et à un mysticisme un peu fumeux. Pourtant, Bergson a mis vingt-cinq ans à se documenter pour écrire ce livre qui constitue une synthèse philosophique des travaux de la sociologie, de l anthropologie et de la psychologie des religions de son temps. Surtout, on voit s y articuler les trois dimensions qui travaillent toute la pensée métaphysique de Bergson : le vital, le mental et le social ; et on comprend mieux que l affirmation du point de vue de la conscience individuelle ne nie en aucune façon son inscription dans la vie biologique et dans une société politique. L existence de grands individus y est mise au service de l action de toute l humanité et de la vie elle-même. F. Keck propose une présentation générale de l ouvrage à travers son contexte intellectuel et sa méthode dualiste. A. Bouaniche commente cinq textes extraits des Deux sources ou d ouvrages qui l éclairent. F. Worms présente une interprétation de ce livre à la lumière du rapport entre la vie et la morale chez Bergson et dans la philosophie contemporaine.___La collection "Philo-oeuvres" n a d autre but que d aider à la lecture des grandes oeuvres philosophiques. Cette lecture ne suppose pas seulement une vue synoptique : elle exige que l on se mesure au texte, dans sa littéralité même. C est la raison pour laquelle chaque volume de la collection "Philo-oeuvres" comprend trois parties : une présentation de l oeuvre dans sa dimension proprement systématique, des textes commentés, un vocabulaire enfin qui s applique à clarifier les termes essentiels de chaque oeuvre. Cette collection s adresse à tous ceux qui ont le souci de lire les philosophes.
