Фукоово и Aгамбеново разумевање биополитике: Изазов модерне?
Foucault’s and Agamben’s Understanding of Biopolitics: A Challenge of Modernity?

Summary/Abstract: In this article the author analyses various theoretical conceptions of biopolitics in Michel Foucault and Giorgio Agamben through the issue of their relation towards Modernity. In confronting divergent standpoints, the author especially focuses on particularities of Foucault’s position, arguing that Foucault’s homo politicus appears as an still uninvestigated possibility of synthesis of politics, ethics and philosophy. In that context, the ways in which Foucault and Agamben relate towards Modernity are presented as decisive for interpretation and understanding of biopolitics and new possibilities of the political. The author concludes in arguing that genealogy of contemporary phenomena of biopolitics, as a continuation of Foucault’s approach in the present, opens up with itself the theoretical possibility for new political subjectivity.
