Summary/Abstract This article shares its title with a Beatles' song in which John Lennon wove together several newspaper stories from a particular day to create "A Day in the Life". As with the idea behind Lennon's lyrics I would like to provide a tomogram of global governmentality by using a specific day's events to examine transformations in the current world (dis)order. On November 20th, 2003, several events occurred, including the bomb attack on the British Consulate and the HSBC bank headquarters in Istanbul; a presidential visit by George W. Bush to London accompanied by antiwar protests; suicide bombings in Kirkuk and Ramadi; an evacuation of staff from the White House due to a "blip" on a radar screen rather than a plane; anti-FTAA protests and clashes with police in Miami; all these events can be used as a barometer to examine global governmentality and the current predicament of the representation of global order. This analysis is framed within the broader context of a questioning of the "eventness" of the event, agency and territoriality in contemporary world politics, as well as the process and significance of dating in representing global order. In doing so it attempts to highlight the tensions between global politics understood and articulated from a sovereign optic and an understanding of global politics as a site of governmentality and transversal struggles in a world where "9-11" and the "war on terror" provide the fundamental markers of current representations of contemporary global social order.

Sovereign power and the biopolitics of human security / Larrinaga, Miguel De; Doucet, Marc G   Journal Article
Larrinaga, Miguel De Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2008.
Summary/Abstract This article examines the manner in which the human security discourse enables a dual exercise of sovereign power and biopower. Drawing from the work of Michel Foucault and Giorgio Agamben, it argues that human security contributes to this dual exercise by conceptualizing a form of life rendered amenable to biopolitical technologies and rationalities while simultaneously defining the conditions of exceptionality that assist in sovereign power's ability to authorize international interventions meant to secure human life. This frame of reference is then mobilized to read the human security discourse within the broader developments of the concept of security from the immediate postwar period to the post-9/11 moment. It is argued that the human security discourse informs the current biopolitical networks of world order and often works in conjunction with - rather than against - the global exercise of sovereign power made evident by the `war on terror'.
