In this new book, Dimitris Vardoulakis asks how it is possible to
think of a politics that is not commensurate with sovereignty. For
such a politics, he argues, sovereignty is defined not in terms of
the exception but as the different ways in which violence is
justified. Vardoulakis shows how it is possible to deconstruct the
various justifications of violence. Such dejustifications can take
place only by presupposing an other to sovereignty, which
Vardoulakis identifies with radical democracy. In doing so,
Sovereignty and Its Other puts forward both a novel critique of
sovereignty and an original philosophical theory of democratic
practice.
