Nancy on Trial

thinking philosophy and the jurisdictional

Pages 32-41 | Published online: 14 Jul 2021
 

Abstract

This paper looks at the thread throughout Nancy’s work on the notion of the decision and judgment. In a period when we must rethink not only the sovereign decision but all manner of traditional jurisprudential and ethical modes of thinking the decision, Nancy’s considerations of freedom help us reflect on thinking the decision otherwise and thus could prove revolutionary for how we think crime and punishment and calculating with the incalculable of each and every trauma we dub a crime. At a time when the geographies of the prison–industrial complex overtake the West, perhaps no other thinking is more central to undoing its practices and sovereignty.
