Böcker av Arne De Boever

Arne De Boever is faculty in the School of Critical Studies and director of the MA Aesthetics and Politics program at the California Institute of the Arts. His works include States of Exception in the Contemporary Novel, Narrative Care, Plastic Sovereignties, and Finance Fictions.

Brings together the philosophy of art and aesthetics with debates about political theology and sovereignty.

Arne de Boever offers an accessible introduction to Francois Jullien's work, highlighting Jullien's work at the intersection of Chinese and Western thought and drawing out the 'unthought-of' in both traditions of thinking. In the process he emphatically challenges some of the core assumptions of Western reasoning.

Through a sustained engagement with the work of Giorgio Agamben and Catherine Malabou, and against the background of contemporary political phenomena, Arne De Boever explores what positive political possibilities the notion of sovereignty might still hold.
