Description

Book Synopsis

This book offers a thoughtful, original critique of how contemporary development practices govern life under global capitalism.

Drawing on Heideggerian historical ontology and decolonial thought, it rethinks the foundations of biopolitical critique and explores how development discourse operates in both international policy and resistance movements. It is essential reading for scholars and students of international relations, critical development studies and European political thought seeking new ways to understand, and challenge, the politics of life in the global order.
