"The New Demons" combines an original investigation of twentieth century philosophical debates on evil and a critical engagement with the latest research on power and biopolitics in order to offer a unique vision of our contemporary human condition.
Simona Forti is Professor of Political Philosophy at the University of Piemonte Orientale in Italy.
"Simona Forti is one of the most interesting Italian philosophers today. She is known for her studies on Arendt, and lately for her philosophical work on "totalitarian thanatopolitics" and neoliberal biopolitics. Her latest mono- graph,
New Demons: Rethinking Evil and Power Today, is a challenging and innovative book that, in my opinion, is destined to become an unavoidable point of orientation for studies and scholarly investigations on the topic. Moreover, it's a courageous book."
