Political Alchemy: Technology Unbounded (eBook, PDF)

Produktbeschreibung

This book explores politics as a form of alchemy, a process that transforms entities by altering their identities. Identifying this process as a common denominator of many political phenomena, it demonstrates both the widespread presence of alchemical techniques in politics and the acceleration of their deployment.
