{"product_id":"sovereignty-and-its-other-dimitris-vardoulakis-9780823251353","title":"Sovereignty and Its Other: Toward the Dejustification of Violence","description":"In this new book, Dimitris Vardoulakis asks how it is possible to think of a politics that is not commensurate with sovereignty. For such a politics, he argues, sovereignty is defined not in terms of the exception but as the different ways in which violence is justified. Vardoulakis shows how it is possible to deconstruct the various justifications of violence. Such de-justifications can only take place by presupposing an other to sovereignty, which Vardoulakis identifies with radical democracy. In doing so, Sovereignty and Its Other puts forward both a novel critique of sovereignty and an original philosophical theory of democratic practice.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Dimitris Vardoulakis\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0823251357\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780823251353\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Fordham University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/01\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 272\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.10lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.10w x 0.90d","brand":"Dimitris Vardoulakis","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46311026131199,"sku":"9780823251353","price":95.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_dc2d1ec3-1c48-404c-a0d6-7f9c1655a9f7.jpg?v=1730887896","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/sovereignty-and-its-other-dimitris-vardoulakis-9780823251353","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
