About:
This college-level worksheet guides students through Achille Mbembe's theory of necropower and necropolitics—the sovereign control of mortality—as a framework for understanding colonial occupation and global inequalities. Seven analytical questions trace the logic of Mbembe's argument from early-modern to late-modern colonial forms, space organization, technological violence, and the shift from episodic to permanent siege. Suitable for postcolonial theory, critical theory, political philosophy, or global-studies seminars.
