The concept of biopolitics has been one of the most important and
widely used in recent years in disciplines across the humanities
and social sciences. In Biopolitics, Mills provides a wide-ranging
and insightful introduction to the field of biopolitical studies.
The first part of the book provides a much-needed philosophical
introduction to key theoretical approaches to the concept in
contemporary usage. This includes discussions of the work of Michel
Foucault, Giorgio Agamben, Hannah Arendt, Roberto Esposito, and
Antonio Negri. In the second part of the book, Mills discusses
various topics across the categories of politics, life and
subjectivity. These include questions of sovereignty and
governmentality, violence, rights, technology, reproduction, race,
and sexual difference. This book will be an indispensable guide for
those wishing to gain an understanding of the central theories and
issues in biopolitical studies. For those already working with the
concept of biopolitics, it provides challenging and provocative
insights and argues for a ground-breaking reorientation of the
field.
