Zusatztext "The papers were distributed beforehand, so when the participants convened at the University of Alberta in October 2007, the papers were grist for the roundtable discussions, workshops, and assemblies. By the end of the conference, the papers, originally reflecting such disciplines as philosophy, psychology, law, history, and politics had been woven into a dense fabric of call and response, debate and reference. Among the 11 topics are the pluralization of civil personae in early modern German natural law, anti-security personae from David Dyzanhaus' human rights lawyer to Giorgia Agamben's illuminato, self-preservation and the idea of the state, the emergence of modern neutrality society and the formation of the types of subjects it requires, and anticolonial nationalism as exemplified by India." -Eithne O'Leyne, BOOK NEWS, Inc.
