The Implications of Immanence: Toward a New Concept of Life

Focusing on the concept of immanence, the book critiques the reduction of humanity to mere biological existence, a notion associated with bio-power. It challenges biologism and vitalism by exploring the relationship between life and death, particularly in the subtle gap that distinguishes lived experience from the physical body. This examination introduces a crucial blind spot in phenomenology, prompting a deeper reflection on the nature of existence and the complexities of human life beyond mere survival.
