What Giroux begins to illustrate in his piece "Reading Hurricane Katrina: Race, Class, and the Biopolitics of Disposability" is a frighteningly under-acknowledged topic. In the marriage between liberal economic doctrines and the biopolitics of the state, the evolution of power has led us to a place where the ability to render entire populations invisible and in effect disposable has become tantamount. In so many aspects of life we are beginning to see this theme p...

Hannah Arendt once argued that "the public realm has lost the power of illumination," and one result is that more and more people "have retreated from the world and their obligations within it" (1955, 4). The public realm is not merely a space where the political, social, economic, and cultural interconnect; it is also the pre-eminent space of public pedagogy—that is, a space where subjectivities are shaped, public commitments are formed, and choices are made.

Biosociality: The emergence of a social behavior at the level of society & population where individuals practice a ritualized mode of self-regulation and disciplining. Acting at the level of the two poles of biopower ("the anatomo-politics of the human body & the regulatory control of the population") proposed by Michel Foucault, biosociality is the goal oriented evolution of biopolitics, into a new realm of disciplinary practices acting on, and perpetuating within, a neo-libreal society.

The great obsession of the nineteenth century was, as we know, history: with its themes of development and of suspension, of crisis, and cycle, themes of the ever-accumulating past, with its great preponderance of dead men and the menacing glaciation of the world. The nineteenth century found its essential mythological resources in the second principle of thermaldynamics- The present epoch will perhaps be above all the epoch of space. We are in the epoch of simultaneity: we are in the epoch o...
