Renowned Italian philosopher Giorgio Agamben collects all of his
fierce, passionate, and deeply personal interventions regarding the
2020 health emergency as it played out in Italy and across the
world. Alongside and beyond accusations, these texts variously
reflect upon the great transformation affecting Western
democracies. In the name of biosecurity and health, the model of
bourgeois democracy-together with its rights, parliaments, and
constitutions-is everywhere surrendering to a new despotism where
citizens seem to accept unprecedented limitations to their
freedoms. This leads to the urgency of the volume's title: Where
Are We Now? For how long will we accept living in a constantly
extended state of exception, the end of which remains impossible to
see?
