Politics of Life and Philosophy of the Impersonal, Italian philosopher Roberto Esposito explores the philosophical and political implications of what he calls "the impersonal." Challenging dominant Western notions of subjectivity and identity, Esposito argues for a shift from the personal "I" and communal "we" to a radical "third person" perspective that destabilizes conventional categories of selfhood and sovereignty. Drawing from biopolitics, continental philosophy, and critical theory, he confronts the limits of modern political thought and proposes a new framework rooted in the impersonal as a site of liberation, life, and coexistence.

This book is essential reading for scholars in political theory, continental philosophy, and contemporary critical thought.
