This document provides instructions for Assignment 2 of an English 106 course. It includes 3 passages for analysis on the topic of biopolitics from the book Biopolitics: A Reader. Students are instructed to summarize one passage in 5 sentences or less, choose 1-2 examples from the TV show The Night Of to analyze how the show informs our understanding of biopolitics, and comment in the final paragraph on how the analysis comments on current affairs. Guidelines for formatting, length, and submitting the paper are also provided.
The document discusses social contract theory as proposed by Thomas Hobbes, John Locke, and Jean Jacques Rousseau. Hobbes viewed the state of nature as one of constant war where life was "solitary, poor, nasty, brutish and short." He believed people formed societies and ceded power to sovereign authorities to escape this state of nature. Locke saw the state of nature in a more positive light but argued societies were formed to impartially judge disputes. Rousseau believed people were inherently good but formed societies to fulfill their moral duties and achieve true humanity.

T o the extent that Americans continue to be guided by the Biblical
outlook, their disposition to understand the relationship between
ethics and politics in universal terms is reinforced. This propensity
is perhaps also furthered by a tendency of democracy described by
Tocqueville. He observed that democratic people, because of their
extreme love of equality, tend to abstract from human differences
and thus to think of man with a capital M—that is to say, in generic
terms—rather than in terms of the many subtle gradations of human
experience. Whatever the reasons, the familiar fact is that Americans
generally think about politics in terms of a universal morality and,
therefore, to view the relationship of ethics and politics al.
This document is a thesis submitted by Daniel Leslie Mpho Duke for the degree of Master of Development and Gender Studies at the University of Melbourne in October 2015. The thesis is titled "A Poison Apple? Deconstructing the Western liberal human rights framework, from its normative, reason-giving core."
The thesis argues that while human rights were originally animated from a normative core of reason-giving standards, the contemporary global human rights regime has become aligned with Western liberal ideals of political democracy, capitalism and hierarchies of power. This has distorted human rights from their underlying normative core and rendered the framework vulnerable to claims of imposing Western values. The thesis contends that any development practice based on this "poisoned" human
Western Democratic States are systems of governance that adhere to principles of Western thought combined with some form of democratic system. While democracy aims to allow individuals freedom and get out of a "state of nature" characterized by war and lack of rights, it also has flaws that make it susceptible to outside influence. A key aspect of Western democratic states is a free enterprise economic model, but this can encourage selfishness and prioritize personal gain over community welfare. Western democratic states also have an obligation to protect citizens' rights and security, but they may neglect this duty if helping others involves personal loss. Overall, the document examines both benefits and weaknesses of Western democratic states from philosophical perspectives.
This document provides an overview and analysis of Edmund Burke's political philosophy regarding the social contract and transition from the state of nature to civil society. The summary is:
[1] Burke believed that humans are by nature reasonable and that civil society allows reason to be best cultivated, making civil society a more natural state than one without rules or government. [2] Burke recognized that all societies are based on views of human nature, and he saw humans as imperfect beings with distinctive identities rather than abstract and equal. [3] Burke viewed the state as natural and organic rather than artificial, believing people and societies should evolve over time rather than be planned artificially.
18John LockeJust as the political philosophy of Thomas.docxdrennanmicah
18
John Locke
Just as the political philosophy of Thomas
Hobbes was shaped by the politics of absolutism,
so that of John Locke (1632-1704) represented a
response to experiments with republicanism.
Locke wrote his Two Treatises of Government
almost immediately after the Glorious Revolution
of 1688 in which a corrupt, absolutist British
monarch was replaced by William and Mary in a
bloodless coup that established a constitutional
monarchy.
As Locke stated in the preface of his Of Civil
Government , he hoped “to establish the throne of
our present King William; to make good his title,
in the consent of the people . . . and to justify to
the world the people of England, whose love of
their just and natural rights, with their resolution
to preserve them, saved the nation when it was on
the very birth of slavery and ruin.”
Locke’s Second Treatise had a clear and
profound influence on the American revolution.
His theory and justification of revolution appear in
almost verbatim quotations in the Declaration of
Independence (although Jefferson later denied any
knowing borrowing from Locke or anyone else),
and justify the separation from Britain by appeal
to high philosophical argument rather than merely
transient expediency.
Locke’s greatest contributions to the American
philosophy of government can be found in his
elaboration of the parliamentary ideals of mixed
government and separation of powers. He justifies
constitutional change by investigating the origins
and structure of civil (political) society. Locke’s
challenge to traditional absolutism arises in part
from the Protestant notion that each individual has
a direct relation to God. Hence, no political
intermediary (i.e. a king or monarch) is necessary.
God gives man free will to form his own civil
society.
Like Hobbes, Locke explains the civil society
by first addressing the state of nature. Man must
have a reason to form the civil society if God is
removed from the equation. Unlike Hobbes,
however, Locke argues that the state of nature is
not a state of anarchy, but a state of perfect
equality. It is only when men come into conflict
over property that the need for the civil society
becomes clear. Instead of joining the civil society
for self-preservation, men join to protect property.
For Locke, the function and end of government are
the preservation of life, liberty, and property.
Perhaps one of the key elements of Locke’s
argument is his emphasis on government as a
process. Government is not static; it responds to
the process of human development and to
changing human needs. We can alter or abolish it
accordingly as it suits our needs. In addition, it is
a process of moving from the state of nature where
total freedom and equality reign, to a civil society
where we give up certain liberties in order to gain
security.
As you read Locke, compare and contrast his
view of human nature and the justification and
legitimate power.
This summary provides the key points from the document in 3 sentences:
The document discusses psychoanalytic theories of jouissance and how fully experiencing jouissance requires defying social norms and contracts. It argues that Nazis who committed atrocities during the Holocaust obtained the highest form of jouissance through their extreme defiance of social standards by torturing and killing. The document also analyzes a short story to show how characters experience jouissance through more minor acts of disobedience, suggesting jouissance is an inherent human desire to abandon social rules.
Thomas Hobbes was an English philosopher born in 1588 who is considered one of the founders of modern political philosophy. He studied at Oxford University and traveled throughout Europe, becoming interested in different forms of government. His most famous work was Leviathan, in which he argued that human nature is selfish and violent, and that life in a state of nature would be "solitary, poor, nasty, brutish and short." Hobbes believed people consent to a social contract establishing an absolute sovereign, such as a monarch, to maintain order and security. He viewed sovereignty as the foundation of civil government and advocated for strong, centralized states with absolute power.
This document discusses the moral arguments for Kosovo's formal independence from Serbia. It argues that national sovereignty and territorial integrity should only apply to democratic states that accurately reflect the will of their indigenous people. Forcing one nation to be ruled by another against their will through a state is a tyranny that violates humanism. Kosovo's independence is therefore a moral victory for the Kosovars and other oppressed nations, setting a precedent that could also benefit groups in places like Transdniestr, Northern Cyprus, Vojvodina, and others seeking greater self-determination.

Working With Survivors of Sexual Abuse and Trauma: The Case of Rita
Rita is a 22-year-old, heterosexual, Latina female working in the hospitality industry at a resort. She is the youngest of five children and lives at home with her parents. Rita has dated in the past but never developed a serious relationship. She is close to her immediate and extended family as well as to her female friends in the Latino community. Although her parents and three of her siblings were born in the Dominican Republic, Rita was born in the United States.
A year ago, Rita was sexually assaulted by an acquaintance of a male coworker. Rita and a female coworker met Juan and Bob after work at a local bar for a light meal and a few drinks. Because Rita had to get up early to work her shift the next day, Bob offered to drive her home. Instead of taking Rita directly home, however, he drove to a desolate spot nearby and assaulted her. Afterward, Bob threatened to harm her family if she did not remain silent and proceeded to drive her home. Although Rita did not tell her family what happened, she did call our agency hotline the next day to discuss her options. Because Rita’s assault occurred within the 5-day window for forensic evidence collection of this kind, Rita consented to activation of the county’s sexual assault response team (SART). Although she agreed to have an advocate and the sexual assault nurse examiner (SANE) meet her at the hospital, Rita tearfully stated that she did not want to file a police report at that time because she did not want to upset her family. The nurse examiner interviewed Rita, collected evidence, recorded any injuries, administered antibiotics for possible sexually transmitted infections, and gave Rita emergency contraception in case of pregnancy. The advocate stayed with Rita during the procedure, supporting her and validating her experience, and gave her a referral for individual crisis counseling at our agency.
My treatment goals for Rita included alleviation of rape trauma syndrome symptoms that included shame and self-blame, validation of self-worth and empowerment, and processing how it would feel to discl.

According to the Council on Social Work Education, Competency 5 Eng.docxaryan532920
According to the Council on Social Work Education, Competency 5: Engage in Policy Practice:
Social workers understand that human rights and social justice, as well as social welfare and services, are mediated by policy and its implementation at the federal, state, and local levels. Social workers understand the history and current structures of social policies and services, the role of policy in service delivery, and the role of practice in policy development. Social workers understand their role in policy development and implementation within their practice settings at the micro, mezzo, and macro levels and they actively engage in policy practice to effect change within those settings. Social workers recognize and understand the historical, social, cultural, economic, organizational, environmental, and global influences that affect social policy. They are also knowledgeable about policy formulation, analysis, implementation, and evaluation.
Walden’s MSW program expects students in their specialization year to be able to:
Evaluate the implication of policies and policy change in the lives of clients/constituents.
Demonstrate critical thinking skills that can be used to inform policymakers and influence policies that impact clients/constituents and services.
This assignment is intended to help students demonstrate the behavioral components of this competency in their field education.
To prepare
: Working with your field instructor, identify a social problem that is common among the organization (or its clients) and research current policies at that state and federal levels that impact the social problem. Then, from a position of advocacy, identify methods to address the social problem (i.e., how you, as a social worker, and the agency advocate to change the problem). You are expected to specifically address how both you and the agency can effectively engage policy makers to make them aware of the social problem and the impact that the policies have on the agency and clients.

The thesis argues that while human rights were originally animated from a normative core of reason-giving standards, the contemporary global human rights regime has become aligned with Western liberal ideals of political democracy, capitalism and hierarchies of power. This has distorted human rights from their underlying normative core and rendered the framework vulnerable to claims of imposing Western values. The thesis contends that any development practice based on this "poisoned" human
Western Democratic States are systems of governance that adhere to principles of Western thought combined with some form of democratic system. While democracy aims to allow individuals freedom and get out of a "state of nature" characterized by war and lack of rights, it also has flaws that make it susceptible to outside influence. A key aspect of Western democratic states is a free enterprise economic model, but this can encourage selfishness and prioritize personal gain over community welfare. Western democratic states also have an obligation to protect citizens' rights and security, but they may neglect this duty if helping others involves personal loss. Overall, the document examines both benefits and weaknesses of Western democratic states from philosophical perspectives.
This document provides an overview and analysis of Edmund Burke's political philosophy regarding the social contract and transition from the state of nature to civil society. The summary is:
[1] Burke believed that humans are by nature reasonable and that civil society allows reason to be best cultivated, making civil society a more natural state than one without rules or government. [2] Burke recognized that all societies are based on views of human nature, and he saw humans as imperfect beings with distinctive identities rather than abstract and equal. [3] Burke viewed the state as natural and organic rather than artificial, believing people and societies should evolve over time rather than be planned artificially.

John Locke
Just as the political philosophy of Thomas
Hobbes was shaped by the politics of absolutism,
so that of John Locke (1632-1704) represented a
response to experiments with republicanism.
Locke wrote his Two Treatises of Government
almost immediately after the Glorious Revolution
of 1688 in which a corrupt, absolutist British
monarch was replaced by William and Mary in a
bloodless coup that established a constitutional
monarchy.
As Locke stated in the preface of his Of Civil
Government , he hoped “to establish the throne of
our present King William; to make good his title,
in the consent of the people . . . and to justify to
the world the people of England, whose love of
their just and natural rights, with their resolution
to preserve them, saved the nation when it was on
the very birth of slavery and ruin.”
Locke’s Second Treatise had a clear and
profound influence on the American revolution.
His theory and justification of revolution appear in
almost verbatim quotations in the Declaration of
Independence (although Jefferson later denied any
knowing borrowing from Locke or anyone else),
and justify the separation from Britain by appeal
to high philosophical argument rather than merely
transient expediency.
Locke’s greatest contributions to the American
philosophy of government can be found in his
elaboration of the parliamentary ideals of mixed
government and separation of powers. He justifies
constitutional change by investigating the origins
and structure of civil (political) society. Locke’s
challenge to traditional absolutism arises in part
from the Protestant notion that each individual has
a direct relation to God. Hence, no political
intermediary (i.e. a king or monarch) is necessary.
God gives man free will to form his own civil
society.
Like Hobbes, Locke explains the civil society
by first addressing the state of nature. Man must
have a reason to form the civil society if God is
removed from the equation. Unlike Hobbes,
however, Locke argues that the state of nature is
not a state of anarchy, but a state of perfect
equality. It is only when men come into conflict
over property that the need for the civil society
becomes clear. Instead of joining the civil society
for self-preservation, men join to protect property.
For Locke, the function and end of government are
the preservation of life, liberty, and property.
Perhaps one of the key elements of Locke’s
argument is his emphasis on government as a
process. Government is not static; it responds to
the process of human development and to
changing human needs. We can alter or abolish it
accordingly as it suits our needs. In addition, it is
a process of moving from the state of nature where
total freedom and equality reign, to a civil society
where we give up certain liberties in order to gain
security.
As you read Locke, compare and contrast his
view of human nature and the justification and
legitimate power.
This summary provides the key points from the document in 3 sentences:
The document discusses psychoanalytic theories of jouissance and how fully experiencing jouissance requires defying social norms and contracts. It argues that Nazis who committed atrocities during the Holocaust obtained the highest form of jouissance through their extreme defiance of social standards by torturing and killing. The document also analyzes a short story to show how characters experience jouissance through more minor acts of disobedience, suggesting jouissance is an inherent human desire to abandon social rules.
Thomas Hobbes was an English philosopher born in 1588 who is considered one of the founders of modern political philosophy. He studied at Oxford University and traveled throughout Europe, becoming interested in different forms of government. His most famous work was Leviathan, in which he argued that human nature is selfish and violent, and that life in a state of nature would be "solitary, poor, nasty, brutish and short." Hobbes believed people consent to a social contract establishing an absolute sovereign, such as a monarch, to maintain order and security. He viewed sovereignty as the foundation of civil government and advocated for strong, centralized states with absolute power.
This document discusses the moral arguments for Kosovo's formal independence from Serbia. It argues that national sovereignty and territorial integrity should only apply to democratic states that accurately reflect the will of their indigenous people. Forcing one nation to be ruled by another against their will through a state is a tyranny that violates humanism. Kosovo's independence is therefore a moral victory for the Kosovars and other oppressed nations, setting a precedent that could also benefit groups in places like Transdniestr, Northern Cyprus, Vojvodina, and others seeking greater self-determination.

Working With Survivors of Sexual Abuse and Trauma: The Case of Rita
Rita is a 22-year-old, heterosexual, Latina female working in the hospitality industry at a resort. She is the youngest of five children and lives at home with her parents. Rita has dated in the past but never developed a serious relationship. She is close to her immediate and extended family as well as to her female friends in the Latino community. Although her parents and three of her siblings were born in the Dominican Republic, Rita was born in the United States.
A year ago, Rita was sexually assaulted by an acquaintance of a male coworker. Rita and a female coworker met Juan and Bob after work at a local bar for a light meal and a few drinks. Because Rita had to get up early to work her shift the next day, Bob offered to drive her home. Instead of taking Rita directly home, however, he drove to a desolate spot nearby and assaulted her. Afterward, Bob threatened to harm her family if she did not remain silent and proceeded to drive her home. Although Rita did not tell her family what happened, she did call our agency hotline the next day to discuss her options. Because Rita’s assault occurred within the 5-day window for forensic evidence collection of this kind, Rita consented to activation of the county’s sexual assault response team (SART). Although she agreed to have an advocate and the sexual assault nurse examiner (SANE) meet her at the hospital, Rita tearfully stated that she did not want to file a police report at that time because she did not want to upset her family. The nurse examiner interviewed Rita, collected evidence, recorded any injuries, administered antibiotics for possible sexually transmitted infections, and gave Rita emergency contraception in case of pregnancy. The advocate stayed with Rita during the procedure, supporting her and validating her experience, and gave her a referral for individual crisis counseling at our agency.
My treatment goals for Rita included alleviation of rape trauma syndrome symptoms that included shame and self-blame, validation of self-worth and empowerment, and processing how it would feel to discl.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.
This document provides an overview of wound healing, its functions, stages, mechanisms, factors affecting it, and complications.
A wound is a break in the integrity of the skin or tissues, which may be associated with disruption of the structure and function.
Healing is the body’s response to injury in an attempt to restore normal structure and functions.
Healing can occur in two ways: Regeneration and Repair
There are 4 phases of wound healing: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. This document also describes the mechanism of wound healing. Factors that affect healing include infection, uncontrolled diabetes, poor nutrition, age, anemia, the presence of foreign bodies, etc.
Complications of wound healing like infection, hyperpigmentation of scar, contractures, and keloid formation.

3. 1. For a long time; one of the characteristic privileges of
sovereign power was the right
to decide life and death. In a formal sense, it derived no doubt
from the ancient patria potestas
that granted the father of the Roman family the right to
“dispose” of t he life of his children
and his slaves; just as he had given them life, so he could take it
away. By the time the right
to life and death was framed by the classical theoreticians, it
was in a considerably
diminished form. It was no longer considered that this power of
the sovereign over his
subjects could be exercised in an absolute and unconditional
way, but only in cases where
the sovereign’s very existence was in jeopardy: a sort of right of
rejoinder. If he were
threatened by external enemies who sought to overthrow him or
contest his rights, he could
then legitimately’ wage war, and require his subjects to take
part in the defense of the state;
without “directly proposing their death,” he was empowered to
“expose their life”: in this
sense, he wielded an “indirect’’ power over them of life and
death. But if someone dared to
rise up against him and transgress his laws, then he could
exercise a direct power over the
offender’s life: as punishment, the latter would be put to death.
Viewed in this way, the
power of life and death was not an absolute privilege: it was
conditioned by the defense of
the sovereign, and his own survival. (Michel Foucault, “Right
of Death and Power over Life”
from The History of Sexuality, Vol. 1)
2. The protagonist of this book is bare life, that is, the life of
4. homo sacer (sacred man),
who may be killed and yet not sacrificed, and whose essential
function in modern politics we
intend to assert. An obscure figure of archaic Roman law, in
which human life is included in
the juridical order [ordinamento]1 solely in the form of its
exclusion (that is, of its capacity to
be killed), has thus offered the key by which not only the sacred
texts of sovereignty but also
the very codes of political power will unveil their mysteries. At
the sa me time, however, this
ancient meaning of the term sacer presents us with the enigma
of a figure of the sacred that,
before or beyond the religious, constitutes the first paradigm of
the political realm of the
West. The Foucauldian thesis will then have to be corrected or,
at least, completed, in the
sense that what characterizes modern politics is not so much the
inclusion of zoē in the polis
which is, in itself, absolutely ancient-nor simply the fact that
life as such becomes a principal
object of the projections and calculations of State power.
Instead the decisive fact is that,
together with the process by which the exception everywhere
becomes the rule, the realm of
bare life-which is originally situated at the margins of the
political order-gradually begins to
coincide with the political realm, and exclusion and inclusion,
outside and inside, bios and
zoē, right and fact, enter into a zone of irreducible indistinction.
At once excluding bare life
from and capturing it within the political order, the sta te of
exception actually constituted, in
its very separateness, the hidden foundation on which the entire
political system rested.
5. When its borders begin to be blurred, the bare life that dwelt
there frees itself in the city and
becomes both subject and object of the conflicts of the political
order, the one place for
both the organization of State power and emancipation from it.
Everything happens as if,
along with the disciplinary process by which State power makes
man as a living being into its
own specific object, another process is set in motion that in
large measure corresponds to
the birth of modern democracy, in which man as a living being
presents himself no longer as
an object but as the subject of political power. These processes-
which in many ways oppose
and (at least apparently) bitterly conflict with each other-
nevertheless converge insofar as
both concern the bare life of the citizen, the new biopolitical
body of humanity.
If anything characterizes modern democracy as opposed to
classical democracy,
3
then, it is that modern democracy presents itself from the
beginning as a vindication and
liberation of zoē, and that it is constantly trying to transform its
own bare life into a way of
life and to find, so to speak, the bias of zoē. Hence, too, modern
democracy’s specific aporia:
it wants to put the freedom and happiness of men into play in
the very place —“bare life”—
that marked their subjection. Behind the long, strife-ridden
process that leads to the
recognition of rights and formal liberties stands once again the
6. body of the sacred man with
his double sovereign, his life that cannot be sacrificed yet may,
nevertheless, be killed. To
become conscious of this aporia is not to belittle the conquests
and accomplishments of
democracy. It is, rather, to try to understand once and for all
why democracy, at the very
moment in which it seemed to have finally triumphed over its
adversaries and reached its
greatest height, proved itself incapable of saving zoē, to whose
happiness it had dedicated all
its efforts, from unprecedented ruin. Modern democracy’s
decadence and gradual
convergence with totalitarian states in post-democratic
spectacular societies (which begins to
become evident with Alexis de Tocqueville and finds its final
sanction in the analyses of Guy
Debord) may well be rooted in this aporia, which marks the
beginning of modern democracy
and forces it into complicity with its most implacable enemy.
Today politics knows no value
(and, consequently, no nonvalue) other than life, and until the
contra dictions that this fact
implies are dissolved, Nazism and fascism-which transformed
the decision on bare life into
the supreme political principle will remain stubbornly with us.
According to the testimony of
Robert Antelme, in fact, what the camps taught those who lived
there was precisely that
“calling into question the quality of man provokes an almost
biological assertion of
belonging to the human race” (L’espece humaine, p. 11).
(Giorgio Agamben, Homo Sacer:
Sovereign Power and Bare Life)
7. 3. Any historical account of the rise of modern terror needs to
address slavery, which
could be considered one of the first instances of biopolitical
experimentation. In many
respects, the very structure of the plantation system and its
aftermath manifests the
emblematic and paradoxical figure of the state of exception.
This figure is paradoxical here
for two reasons. First, in the context of the plantation, the
humanity of the slave appears as
the perfect figure of a shadow. Indeed, the slave condition
results from a t riple loss: Joss of a
“home,” loss of rights over his or her body, and loss of political
status. This triple loss is
identical with absolute domination, natal alienation, and social
death (expulsion from
humanity altogether). To be sure, as a political-juridical
structure, the plantation is a space
where the slave belongs to a master. It is not a community if
only because by definition, a
community implies the exercise of the power of speech and
thought. As Paul Gilroy says,
“The extreme patterns of communication defined by the
institution of plantation slavery
dictate that we recognize the anti-discursive and extralinguistic
ramifications of power at
work in shaping communicative acts. There may, after all, be no
reciprocity on the plantation
outside of the possibilities of rebellion and suicide, flight and
silent mourning, and there is
certainly no grammatical unity of speech to mediate
communicative reason. In many
respects, the plantation inhabitants live non-synchronously.” As
an instrument of labor, the
slave has a price. As a property, he or she has a value. His or
her labor is needed and used.
8. The slave is therefore kept alive but in a state of injury, in a
phantomlike world of horrors
and intense cruelty and profanity. The violent tenor of the
slave’ s life is manifested through
the overseer’s disposition to behave in a cruel and intemperate
manner and in the spectacle
of pain inflicted on the slave’s body. Violence, here, becomes
an element in manners, like
whipping or taking of the slave’s life itself: an act of caprice
and pure destruction aimed at
instilling terror. Slave life, in many ways, is a form of death-in-
life. As Susan Buck-Morss has
4
suggested, the slave condition produces a contradiction between
freedom of property and
freedom of person. An unequal relationship is established along
with the inequality of the
power over life. This power over the life of another takes the
form of commerce: a person’s
humanity is dissolved to the point where it becomes possible to
say that the slave’s life is
possessed by the master. Because the slave’s life is like a
“thing,” possessed by another
person, the slave existence appears as a perfect figure of a
shadow.
In spite of the terror and the symbolic sealing off of the slave,
he or she maintains
alternative perspectives toward time, work, and self. This is the
second paradoxical element
of the plantation world as a manifestation of the state of
exception. Treated as if he or she
9. no longer existed except as a mere tool and instrument of
production, the slave nevertheless
is able to draw almost any object, instrument, language, or
gesture into a performance and
then stylize it. Breaking with uprootedness and the pure world
of things of which he or she
is but a fragment, the slave is able to demonstrate the protean
capabilities of the human
bond through music and the very body that was supposedly
possessed by another. (Achille
Mbembe, “Necropolitics”)

The Culture Created by The Night Of
Horkheimer and Adorno’s culture industry is a product of the
market that does not permit
15. or facilitate any form of escape from that very same market.
Indeed, it fosters an environment
that eliminates all possibility of avoiding the machine that it
creates. Even when one sits down to
watch a film, he or she is doing nothing more than becoming
inculcated in ways of the culture
industry and its machine. As such, the individual stops being
imaginative, stops thinking, and
stops developing mentally. The culture industry, then, creates
automatons that accept their own
defeat. Ultimately, this creates market-driven cultural cycles
that prevent the individual from
ever organizing and from ever resisting oppression.
The Night Of can and, in some instances for some people, does
fall into this trap. If one is
to accept the notion that the system itself is unfair, then that
individual is forced to witness that
which he or she know happens. If, however, one is unaware of
how the system is unfair, then he
or she is forced to confront the fact that these things happen and
are forced to try to reconcile his
or her worldview with that of the show. In each instance, the
way that the culture industry
16. presents itself is different. In the first example, we become
acutely aware of the issue and may,
theoretically, begin to think about ways to foster resistance. In
the second, we have to make a
decision between calling the show fiction and disregarding its
critique of our culture or accepting
that our worldview is skewed and try to begin to change. Both
possibilities and the outcomes that
Voss-Hoynes
2
they produce articulate the power of the culture industry by
exposing how it facilitates the
creation of cultural products that directly impact the way that
society perceives reality.
Though the show does illustrate how the culture industry is all
encompassing, there are
moments where it does push back on Horkheimer and Adorno’s
ideas. For example, the
outcomes that come out of thinking about how the generic
expectations that one has about a
crime drama/law procedural foster a critique of the way that
viewers respond to such shows. In
17. so doing, the show tests the limits of the idea of the culture
industry. Both supporting previously
held personal convictions and forcing an individual to both
recognize and change a skewed
worldview, forces a reevaluation of genre and questions whether
Horkheimer and Adorno’s idea
extends to things that explicitly critique modern culture. If a
product of the culture industry uses
realism address an issue in modern culture, then reality is never
suspended. As a result, viewers
always-already consider the artifact in conversation with “real
life,” meaning that this artifact
does not need to work to extend its reality into reality outside of
the “theatre.”
The Night Of and the importance of narrative that it creates
exposes the problematic
reliance of stereotypes in our cultural moment. More
specifically, by being set in a post-
September 11 New York City and by focusing on a first-
generation Pakistani-American, the
show demonstrates how preconceived attitudes about cultures
and people, directly alter how
individuals interact in their daily lives. For example, because
Naz is a minority, Detective Dennis
18. Box automatically assumes that Naz is guilty, fails to pursue
other leads, and ultimately destroys
a young man’s life. The Night Of, then, forces a reevaluation of
worldviews, preconceived
notions, and how one engages with other individuals.

The sovereign power had the characteristic privilege to decide
the death and life since long. The father of family of Romans
had the authority to take the life of his slaves and his children,
since is the one who gave birth to them (Foucault, 2014). The
classical theoreticians disregarded all these concepts except in
some cases where the existence of sovereign was at stake. If the
condition of war is imposed by the external enemies, the
sovereign has the right to use his slaves and children for his
defense. The sovereign power has the authority to punish
someone who tried to rise up in mutiny, in the situation of both
war and peace. Therefore, the power of life and death was not
an absolute privilege of sovereign power and has some
conditions of his self-defense.
In the Beginning of 20th century, the basic concept of Bio
Politics emerged in the intellectual settings and was subjected
to critical examination. Rudokf Kjelle who is a Swedish
scientist can be considered as the first to employ it. Until the
time of death in 1922, Kejel-len, was a professor at the
University of Uppsala, always considered individual las
creatures that were always disproportionally bigger and more
powerful in development (Cheung, 1938).
19. Kjellen introduced the concept of bio politics with his firm
conviction. Keeping in view the tension type life as described,
there was an inclination to immerse the discipline after the
special employment of Biology in Bio politics. It is an
important consideration that in the civil war that is fought
ruthlessly between different groups, there is life struggle for
existence and growth in various aspects.
The conservative character of organicist concept of any state
acquired a bias of race in the period of National Socialism and
in condition of Antidemocratic. The use of a famous metaphor
of Volkskroper (the people body) at this time designated
racially homogenous community, authoritarian and the
structural hierarchy (Foucault, 2014).The question is “What are
the central features of National Socialist concept of State and
the Society?” However, there are two central features including
in this concept. The first one promoted the concept and idea that
the various subjects of history didn’t include individuals,
classes and groups but are self-help basis communities having
one common genetic heritage. The assumption of Natural
Hierarchy of races and peoples in accordance with different
inherited biological quality was complemented by this idea.
The question of the principles of imprisonment and its
punishments remained a concern for the most of the period in
past. There was a different way to deal it in all passing phases.
The discrimination in races amongst people is the only thing at
which the human beings are good at.
The question is how to improve all these feature of bio
politics. The cultural inheritance and bringing in it new changes
is the essence of successful understanding of the culture of any
class. Karl Haoushofer has been considered as one of the most
significant figures in the German Geopolitical Scenario and has
occupied the chair in the geography department in University of
Munich. Hounsher was the Roudolf Hess teacher and has
significant contributions to form Geopolitics (Foucault, 2014).
Kohl envisioned the biology state and geopolitical concepts and
examined the development of people and state from the two
20. different but complementary view as a whole. The questions is
how and why both the views are different from each other and
complementary as well. It can be observed as an answer to this
question that the people and state place a great emphasis either
on spatial observations and temporal ideas. Therefore, there was
a need to speak and consider both the geo politics and bio
politics. However, the concept of Bio politics is concerned with
the historical development improved with time, the geopolitics
with the actual space distribution along with an interplay
between the space and people. The example puts a more focus
towards betterment in social conduct and various other political
influences amongst people. The bio politics concept remains a
prime concern for the most of the time for the years to come in
Future.
With the recent developments the concept of Bio politics
emerged as a slogan and a symbol. The concept was known to a
limited number of experts a few years ago and has been in use
by many discourses and disciplines. The term refers to the
polices of political asylum, the various preventive measures of
AIDs and the demographic change overall. The term also
encompasses the promotion in medical research, rules of
abortion, right to kill or murder, financial support required for
various agricultural products and an advanced directive of
various patients with a specification of their preferences
concerned with the life extending measure (Cheung, 1938).
The “Nights of” encompasses a vast range of diverse and most
often conflicting views regarding the various empirical objects
and the normative analysis of the study of Bio Politics. The
concepts and ideas are both critic and always advocates a bio
technological progress used by the unapologetic racists. A part
of another disagreement is the historical delimitation and
various historical definitions.
