Mind your Manners : Agamben and Phish
2021
In the final volume of his Homo Sacer series Giorgio Agamben develops the concept of destituent power, a power that unworks itself in every constitution and renders itself inoperative in its every operation. This concept helps elucidate Agamben’s more enigmatic notion of form-of-life. Whereas the power of sovereign biopolitics is constitutive, i.e. constituting a determinate actual bios out of the indefinite potentialities of zoe, form-of-life exemplifies the power of rendering actual and determinate forms inoperative or destitute. Rather than attempt to devise a ‘proper’ form of life, Agamben seeks to free life from the gravity of all tasks or vocations imposed on it by privileged forms. W…

The impurity of praxis : Arendt and Agamben
2023
AbstractIf politics is understood as a foundational and open-ended activity, a general problem that arises from such a framing concerns the question of how to sustain the possibility of continuous openings without converting action into permanence and closure. In this article, we approach this problematic by treating Hannah Arendt as an exemplary figure in the current of political thought that emphasizes the indeterminate nature of action. We focus more specifically on how Arendt addressed the question of sustaining action by exploring the role of forgiveness, promises, divided power, and principles of action in her thought. While we show that the task of sustaining the indeterminacy of act…
The vulnerability to exploitation of women migrant workers in agriculture in the EU: The need for a human rights and gender based approach
2018
This study, commissioned by the European Parliament’s Policy Department for Citizens' Rights and Constitutional Affairs at the request of the Committee on Women’s Rights and Gender Equality, explores the working conditions of migrant women in agriculture in the EU, focusing on some case studies in Italy and Spain. In particular, it aims to examine the factors that render women vulnerable to exploitation, paying attention to gendered dynamics and power relations. The study contends that to prevent and combat exploitation in agriculture it is necessary to implement concerted actions aimed at tackling, from a human rights and gender perspective, the structural factors of a socio-economic syste…

L'opacità abbagliante di Dio.Sull'ermeneutica diacritica del divino di Richard Kearney
2014
Phenomenological philosophy of religion (Söderblom, van der Leeuw and Otto at the beginning) stresses the impossibility of a conceptual definition of God and considers the sacred as the very object of religion. The sacred is an oxymoronic reality, because it is at the same time opaque and glaring, in the sense that it escapes an eidetic objectifying intuition, but is felt in the body in an immediate and also upsetting way. As Richard Kearney shows, on the level of feeling through the body subjectivity works on the Otherness, which is the phenomenon of its carnal Erlebnis, activating hermeneutical diacritical operations thanks to the role of imagination and under the condition of confidence …
Oggi viene male questo celeste. Paolo Conte e il dilettantismo
2022
The figure of the amateur is emerging on the contemporary semiosphere, both in terms of scientific research and in the artistic domain. In this paper we discuss this phenomenon from the textual analysis of a song by Paolo Conte. We thus deal with the relations of mutual inter semiotic translation between music and image by showing how, in Conte, a musical compo sition can, at the level of utterance, become the theory of a given pictorial making and, at the level of enunciation, be transposed into a drawing that predicates it by its own expressive and semantic means. But also how, in the reverse sense, a certain form of life of the amateur visual artist can be transposed into a precise devic…
