I learned a lot more about biopolitics, particularly of the settler colonial state of Israel and how it mirrors some aspects of Nazi German. And how the continuation of the occupation requires international support for those living in this enclosed jail and this produces profit off of the suffering. ( ) Just so good--really dense at times, and there were things that felt like they should have been more incorporated (specifically the questions around It Gets Better, which seem in the preface like they would take up much more space than they did) but Puar's insights around debility will have me thinking through it for a long time afterwards, especially in conjunction with disability and disability studies. Super fascinating work, and such interesting parts about Israel and Palestine; the bit about IVF and pro-natalism in Israel especially, and the way that debility in Palestine manages to capture not just disability but also limitation of movement were so insightful. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
In The Right to Maim Jasbir K. Puar brings her pathbreaking work on the liberal state, sexuality, and biopolitics to bear on our understanding of disability. Drawing on a stunning array of theoretical and methodological frameworks, Puar uses the concept of “debility”—bodily injury and social exclusion brought on by economic and political factors—to disrupt the category of disability. She shows how debility, disability, and capacity together constitute an assemblage that states use to control populations. Puar's analysis culminates in an interrogation of Israel's policies toward Palestine, in which she outlines how Israel brings Palestinians into biopolitical being by designating them available for injury. Supplementing its right to kill with what Puar calls the right to maim, the Israeli state relies on liberal frameworks of disability to obscure and enable the mass debilitation of Palestinian bodies. Tracing disability's interaction with debility and capacity, Puar offers a brilliant rethinking of Foucauldian biopolitics while showing how disability functions at the intersection of imperialism and racialized capital.
