@dbessner @lionel_trolling @HeerJeet Dammit, I meant College de France *lectures* Anyway, that's kind of my point. The idea of killing animals for food and pleasure obviously predated modernity, doing en masse is an extension of premodern moral logics using new techniques. That's a shallow linkage imo. — PolitiTweet.org

@dbessner @lionel_trolling @HeerJeet It's the "in a deep sense" that I contest. I think that part of the argument links its to the normative project of modernity which is imo a huge mistake, one Foucault also makes in that part of Vol. 1 and in the College de France essays — PolitiTweet.org

@dbessner @lionel_trolling @HeerJeet Put differently, rational planning isn't what caused Nazis to conceive of an extermination project. It gave them the tools to do so more effectively, but that doesn't mean mass murder is the necessary outgrowth of the idea of rational administration or managing populations — PolitiTweet.org
