Abstract

Today’s globalization has brought a myriad of new technological resources and possibilities for the realization of a new and long-awaited dream of humanity free from all ills. However, as we can see, the contemporary world has shown itself instead to be a perverse machine of global distribution of inequalities, especially racial anti-blacks. It is through the critiques, concepts and reflections of Mbembe, Foucault and Agamben that we seek to characterize this racistly structured world, from biopolitics through the idea of sovereignty and the institution of necropoly, to the present possibilities of a becoming-black of the world.
