This book explores the potential for imagining a politics without
violence and evidence that this need not be a utopian project. The
book demonstrates that in theory and in practice, we now have the
intellectual and scientific knowledge to make this possible. In
addition, new sensibilities towards violence have generated social
action on violence, turning this knowledge into practical impact.
Scientifically, the first step is to recognize that only through
interdisciplinary conversations can we fully realize this
knowledge. Conversations between natural sciences, social sciences
and the humanities, impossible in the twentieth century, are today
possible and essential for understanding the phenomenon of
violence, its multiple expressions and the factors that reproduce
it. We can distinguish aggression from violence, the biological
from the social body. In an echo of the rational Enlightenment of
the eighteenth century, this book calls for an emotional
Enlightenment in the twenty first and a post Weberian understanding
of politics and the State.
