Facelessness: Agamben, Deleuze, & Levinas on the Ethics of Evil
Tying Agamben, Foucault, Deleuze, and Levinas’ philosophies together, in this essay I attempt to theorize politics and ethics within the face-to-face and a biopolitical libidinal economy which produces desires to dehumanize others & make them non-relational to ourselves. I pull here from Levinas’ Totality & Infinity, Agamben’s Homo Sacer, and from various works on Deleuze & Guattari: Anti-Oedipus, A Thousand Plateaus, and Logic of Sense most explicitly. I would love to hear thoughts on this project as it is an essay I will soon be expanding for my Master’s thesis.
