The Biopolitics of Stalinism: Ideology and Life in Soviet Socialism

CGP Books,University Lecturer in World Politics and Academy of Finland Research Fellow at the Department of Political and Economic Studies Sergei Prozorov (University of Helsinki Finland)

Sergei

Prozorov critically analyses Stalinism as a distinct strain of political

theory, showing how it was oriented towards transforming, not protecting,

life in accordance with the communist ideal. He engages with the theories of

Foucault, Agamben, Esposito, Meillassoux, Henry and Malabou to critique

conventional approaches to biopolitics.
