Agamben: From the State of Control to a Praxis of Destituent Power | ROAR Magazine

Giorgio Agamben on the rise of the contemporary police state — and why
the left needs to revise its strategies to break out of it: "The
transformation is so extreme that we can legitimately ask not only if
the society in which we live is still a democratic one, but also if this
society can still be considered political."

Faced with absolute state
control and the rapid eradication of political society, only a theory
and praxis of destituent power can reclaim democracy.
