Povinelli continues her project of mapping the current conditions of late liberalism by offering a bold retheorization of power. Finding Foucauldian biopolitics unable to adequately reveal contemporary mechanisms of power and governance, Povinelli describes a mode of power she calls \u003ci\u003egeontopower\u003c\/i\u003e, which operates through the regulation of the distinction between Life and Nonlife and the figures of the Desert, the Animist, and the Virus. \u003ci\u003eGeontologies\u003c\/i\u003e examines this formation of power from the perspective of Indigenous Australian maneuvers against the settler state. And it probes how our contemporary critical languages-anthropogenic climate change, plasticity, new materialism, antinormativity-often unwittingly transform their struggles against geontopower into a deeper entwinement within it. A woman who became a river, a snakelike entity who spawns the fog, plesiosaurus fossils and vast networks of rock weirs: in asking how these different forms of existence refuse incorporation into the vocabularies of Western theory Povinelli provides a revelatory new way to understand a form of power long self-evident in certain regimes of settler late liberalism but now becoming visible much further beyond.\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Duke University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53510991774063,"sku":"9780822362333","price":212.4,"currency_code":"BRL","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0921\/9384\/9711\/files\/0822362333.jpg?v=1790003864","url":"https:\/\/internacional.umlivro.com.br\/products\/geontologies","provider":"UmLivro Internacional","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
