The prominence and variety of global movements of resistance
indicates that the idea of politics as governance is contested.
However, the political canon continues to reinforce a narrow
definition of politics according to liberal principles and
practices. This book develops a new theory of political life that
includes, and highlights, the interconnectedness of forces of
order, disorder, governance, resistance, violence and difference.
Using the concept of the milieu- both a mechanism of governance and
a force of difference and transformation-this book stages an
encounter between the modern political and international thought of
Thomas Hobbes and Immanuel Kant and the contemporary philosophy of
Michel Foucault and Gilles Deleuze. The writings of Foucault and
Deleuze will serve to explore and contextualize the milieu and will
function to highlight the complex mobility and relationality of
notions of politics, life, governance and resistance.
