Rethinking Foucault's Concepts Today, Against Nikolas Rose -- Eternally Becoming: Feminism, Race, Contingency and the Critique of Biopolitics -- Conclusion -- Notes -- Bibliography -- Index -- --

Biopolitical Experience offers an original and comprehensive interpretation of Michel Foucault's analysis of biopolitics b6 s situating biopolitics in the context of embodied histories of subjectivity, affective investments and structures of experience. Going beyond lamentation at the horrors of biopolitical domination, the book develops a positive-critique of biopolitical experience: offering explanations as to the enormous appeal of biopolitical discourse; and cultivating an affirmative, ethical and productive response to the technologies of biopolitical racism and securitization. Such a response is not about life escaping power or a retreat from life, but rather involves critical work on the conditions of production of population life (becoming collective). In addition to a detailed account of Foucault's writings on biopolitics, biology and experience the book offers a critique of some key contemporary interpretations of Foucault and develops the positive-critique of biopolitical experience by exploring the place of biopolitics, racism and contingency in feminist politics.
