Biopolitical Leviathan.Lars Erik Løvaas Gjerde - 2024 - Theoria: A Journal of Social and Political Theory 71 (178):48-74.details The coronavirus pandemic made the biopolitics of infection control the core object of states around the world. Globally, states governed spheres usually free of state control, implementing various restrictions, closing down society in the process. This is possible due to the state's capacities to act through and over society, grounded in the state's powers.

The domestic violence victim as COVID crisis figure.Paige L. Sweet, Maya C. Glenn & Jacob Caponi - forthcoming - Theory and Society:1-24.details During the early months of the COVID-19 pandemic, domestic violence came to be understood as a national emergency. In this paper, we ask how and why domestic violence was constructed as a crisis specific to the pandemic. Drawing from newspaper data, we show that the domestic violence victim came to embody the violation of gendered boundaries between “public” and “private” spheres. Representations of domestic violence centered on violence spilling over the boundaries of the home, infecting the home, or the home (...) Download Export citation Bookmark
