You - and anyone else - are absolutely welcome to say and think what you like - within reason (ie, the laws of libel, for which I am responsible here). That's what the "comments" button is for. I'd be fascinated to hear your perspectives, and Alison Croggonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08398213223487458758noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7202906.post-1151511999165221722006-06-29T02:26:00.000+10:002006-06-29T02:26:00.000+10:00Hi Alison!

I hope I don't miss it. <BR/><BR/>Agamben is definitely worth seeking out, particularly in how he attempts to rethink politics, outside the binaries of right and left.
