John Protevi, Professor of French Studies and professor of philosophy at Louisiana State University. We discuss his 2019 book Edges of the state. This book takes a look at the formation, and edges, of states: their breakdowns and attempts to repair them, and their encounters with non-state peoples. It draws upon anthropology, political philosophy, neuroscience, evolutionary biology, child developmental psychology, and other fields to look at states as projects of constructing “bodies politic,” where the civic and the somatic intersect. http://www.protevi.com/ https://proteviblog.typepad.com/protevi/ https://www.lsu.edu/hss/philosophy/people/protevi.php https://twitter.com/JohnProtevi?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor Support us on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/muhh Twitter: @unconscioushh Instagram: @unconscioushh
