Biopolitical Entanglements is the second book of the Trilogy Altermodernities. The Trilogy mobilises the ideas of renown social scientists and two thinkers of modernity with an interest in art, Georg Simmel and Walter Benjamin. In the tradition of classical critical theory and the literary and social movement of the New Objectivity, it treats modernity as an episodic expression of reality, in diverse momentary images or snapshots. Altermodernities refers to the plurality of these snapshots or frames, and thus the danger of further fragmentation and disconnection, but also the possibility of discovering and/or creating new worlds of belonging. Book 2 uses poetic language to explore the ways humans are subjected to political, cultural and social classification, with a direct impact on diversity, freedom and equal opportunity.
