Book Synopsis

Interrupting the dialectic by which sovereignty manages to be both the cause of our vulnerabilization and the tool of its prevention, in Being Vulnerable Arne De Boever explores how today’s experiences of vulnerabilization can be translated into a collective human power that dismantles the form of sovereignty that is producing this state of affairs.



Trade Review

“Arne De Boever has written a truly remarkable book. Being Vulnerable does nothing less than reconsider the entire tradition of thinking about sovereignty and propose a new way of approaching the topic. The skill, erudition, and sheer mastery of the material is exhilarating.” Dimitris Vardoulakis, author of Stasis Before the State: Nine Theses on Agonistic Democracy
