The political stakes of the Foucault-Derrida debate have never been clearer or more urgent. This spectacular group of writers opens a vital conversation about border zones and hunger strikes; detention centers and supermax prisons; Blackness, criminality, and necropolitics. Speaking from the heart of a prison society, it teaches us how to summon a world without prisons.
