السياسة الحيوية من الأسفل

The current social unrest sweeping the world has led to hasty reactions and a torrent of political statements. At the same time, the landscape is characterized by the response of groups of lower socio-economic status to global chaos and fragile living conditions. In this context, how do we understand what is sometimes described as the collapse of democracy, sometimes as its exhaustion, and sometimes as new challenges represented by an alternative politics of life, or a phenomenon that we can call “biopolitics from the bottom”? The book's theme revolves around crisis, emergency circumstances, and interruption. It addresses the issue of the interrelation of social and political forces in the emergence of certain events, presents some of these events as illustrative examples, and takes a historical and analytical approach to explain the reasons why some things happened the way they did. Crisis is usually the explanatory factor. This book seeks to delve deeper and explore why some crises, but not others, lead to unexpected outcomes. Or in other words, the essence of the crisis lies in the interconnection of forces at a specific time, and from here the issue of emergency circumstances arises. The book seeks to open itself to new intellectual horizons, imagine new paths, and find ways out of the current situation.
