Description
Balibar and the Citizen Subject explores the complex relationships between subjection and subjectivity through a historical analysis of key concepts. This collection of 12 essays provides an overview of Balibar's work, shedding new light on his framework for understanding the citizen subject.
The book delves into the discursive history of these concepts, restoring Arabic and Islamic thought to the conversation. It also includes two previously untranslated essays by Balibar himself, offering a unique insight into his thoughts on Carl Schmitt and Thomas Hobbes.
