Crying for Repression: Populist and Democratic Biopolitics in Times of COVID-19
Critical Legal Thinking (2020)
Abstract
We live in very Foucauldian times, as the many think-pieces published on biopolitics and COVID-19 show. Yet what is remarkable—biopolitically—about the current situation has gone largely unnoticed: We are witnessing a new form of biopolitics today that could be termed populist biopolitics. Awareness of this populist biopolitics helps illuminate what is needed today: democratic biopolitics.Author's Profile
