12 essays on Giorgio Agamben's thinking about economy and government, revolt and revolutionGiorgio Agamben's analysis of sovereignty was profoundly influential for critical theory as it grappled with issues of security and state violence in the wake of 11 September 2001. But what does his work have to say in an age characterised by financial crisis and political revolts? The 12 essays in this volume provide new perspectives on economy and political action by analysing Agamben's recent work on government, his account of a non-statist politics and his relationship to the revolutionary tradition. It includes a new essay by Agamben himself, entitled 'Capitalism as Religion'.ContributorsDaniel McLoughlin • Giorgio Agamben • Jason E.
