This book questions what sovereignty looks like when it is
de-ontologised; when the nothingness at the heart of claims to
sovereignty is unmasked and laid bare. Drawing on critical thinkers
in political theology, such as Schmitt, Agamben, Nancy, Blanchot,
Paulhan, The Politics of Nothing asks what happens to the political
when considered in the frame of the productive potential of the
nothing? The answers are framed in terms of the deep intellectual
histories at our disposal for considering these fundamental
questions, carving out trajectories inspired by, for example, Peter
Lombard, Shakespeare and Spinoza. This book offers a series of
sensitive and creative reflections that suggest the possibilities
offered by thinking through sovereignty via the frame of nihilism.
This book was originally published as a special issue of Culture,
Theory and Critique.
