Prof. Federico Luisetti- Public Lecture on Biopower / Geopower

Current perspectives on the Anthropocene are reformulating Michel Foucault’s biopolitical paradigm, introducing a discourse on geopower and animistic states of nature that account for the political agency of unfamiliar webs of life and nonlife.​

He is the author of several books and essays on philosophy, literature, visual studies, the Avant-gardes, and political thought.
