A new book edited by Dr Thanos Zartaloudis draws together a selection of previously published work on Giorgio Agamben’s thought in relation to law.
The book Agamben and Law, published by Ashgate, offers a range of varied readings, reflections and approaches which will be of interest to readers, students and researchers of Agamben’s law-related work.
Dr Zartaloudis is Senior Lecturer in Law at Kent Law School. He is also a Lecturer at the Architectural Association in London and serves on a number of research centers and associations, including as a founding member of the board of the Centre for Research in Politico-Legal Theology (at Birkbeck College in affiliation with an international network of European Universities in Italy, Switzerland and France).
His main research interests lie within: philosophy, social theory, legal history, ideas of property and the Commons, the history and theory of architecture, urban studies, immigration, asylum and refugee law, the history and philosophy of science and new technologies, and law and visual studies.
He is the head-editor (with Anton Schütz) of the book series titled Encounters in Law and Philosophy, published by Edinburgh University Press, and is the author of Giorgio Agamben: Power Law and the Uses of Criticism, published by Routledge in 2011.
