Descrizione Sovereign Nations, Carnal States
Drawing on critical readings of Augustine, Derrida, Hegel, Schmitt and Benjamin, Shapiro develops what he refers to as a "political somatics". The author is preoccupied by the way desire and habit are the conditions of possibility for meaningful political affiliation, but he also shows how they constantly risk being held hostage to contingency. Both, he concludes, are important resources for democratic politics. Shapiro marshals both historical and contemporary philosophical accounts of embodiment in order to explain an important contemporary political question: How is the nation-state able to cohere as a functioning political unit despite internal differences and the vagaries of the market?
