My use of the term \u00e2\u20ac\u0153zone\u00e2\u20ac  alludes to Roberto Esposito\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s imagining of biopower\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s optimization of life as an immunitarian enclosure, or the privatization of life and its sustaining resources, and its consequent foreclosure of the ethical obligations of communitas.  Foregrounding the geographical, temporal, and affective meanings of \u00e2\u20ac\u0153zone\u00e2\u20ac  and \u00e2\u20ac\u0153zoning\u00e2\u20ac  each chapter examines zones that are relegated to the peripheral \u00e2\u20ac\u0153elsewheres\u00e2\u20ac  of Michel Foucault\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s and Giorgio Agamben\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s once-dominant cartographies of biopolitics:  the Jim Crow South and the plantation state; the immunized residential communities of the white, upper-middle class of apartheid South Africa during its states of emergency in the 1980s; the slave ship and red-lined, domestic spaces of black, American subjects; and the secured and the invaded homelands that exist within the imperial viewfinders of U.S. neoliberal and counter-terrorism policies. I navigate these zones and terrains through modernist and post-colonial literature and post-9/11 films that depict archival bodies or racialized subjects as archival bodies inscribed, as Christina Sharpe has argued, with histories of slavery and colonization. These archival bodies, I maintain, both reflect and contest how the management of public memories of historical traumas can be co-constitutive the zoning life and death that occurs through the biopolitical apparatuses of racializing capitalisms."},{"label":"dcterms.available","value":"2017-09-20T16:52:53Z"},{"label":"dcterms.contributor","value":"Kaplan, E.
