Is justice only achievable by means of bureaucratization or might
it first arrive with the end of bureaucracy? Bureaucratic Fanatics
shows how this ever more contentious question in contemporary
politics belongs to the political-theological underpinnings of
bureaucratization itself. At the end of the 18th century, a new and
paradoxical kind of fanaticism emerged - rational fanaticism - that
propelled the intensive biopolitical management of everyday life in
Europe and North America as well as the extensive colonial
exploitation of the earth and its peoples. These excesses of
bureaucratization incited in turn increasingly fanatical forms of
resistance. And they inspired literary production that
provocatively presented the outrageous contours of rationalization.
Combining political theory with readings of Kleist, Melville,
Conrad, and Kafka, this genealogy of bureaucratic fanaticism
relates two extreme figures: fanatical bureaucrats driven to the
ends of the earth and to the limits of humanity by the rationality
of the apparatuses they serve; and peculiar fanatics who
passionately, albeit seemingly passively, resist the encroachments
of bureaucratization.

As a Unionist but also proslavery state during the American Civil
War, Kentucky occupied a contentious space both politically and
geographically. In many ways, its pragmatic attitude toward
compromise left it in a cultural no-man's-land. The constant
negotiation between the state's nationalistic and Southern
identities left many Kentuckians alienated and conflicted. Lincoln
referred to Kentucky as the crown jewel of the Union slave states
due to its sizable population, agricultural resources, and
geographic position, and these advantages, coupled with the state's
difficult relationship to both the Union and slavery, ultimately
impacted the outcome of the war. Despite Kentucky's central role,
relatively little has been written about the aftermath of the Civil
War in the state and how the conflict shaped the commonwealth we
know today. New Perspectives on Civil War–Era Kentucky offers
readers ten essays that paint a rich and complex image of Kentucky
during the Civil War. First appearing in the Register of the
Kentucky Historical Society, these essays cover topics ranging from
women in wartime to Black legislators in the postwar period. From
diverse perspectives, both inside and outside the state, the
contributors shine a light on the complicated identities of
Kentucky and its citizens in a defining moment of American history.
