It is above all the secretion of a certain type of male desire that becomes politics. Agamben does not seem to fully appreciate the implications of this, when he writes that sadomasochism is precisely the technique of sexuality by which the bare life of a sexual partner is brought to light.

It is the fully dehumanized human being, the one capable of the best and the worst, that we come to discover in this philosophical journey. Free from any moral destiny or any ethical obligation, the contemporary member of the planetary petty bourgeoisie,
