5. 5. Speed And Politics

   Essai d'une physique de la politique

   

   A study of how the increasing velocity of transport, communications and military technologies restructures power and social life, arguing that speed—what the author calls dromology—has become the primary determinant of political authority, strategy and modern conflict; faster systems compress space and time, produce new forms of control and accidents, and thus transform institutions, perception and the nature of war.

6. 6. Die Eroberung Des Körpers. Vom übermenschen Zum überreizten Menschen.

   Vom übermenschen Zum überreizten Menschen.

   

   It argues that modern technologies of speed, information and militarized systems have progressively 'conquered' and reshaped the human body, turning ambitions of enhancement into a condition of chronic overstimulation and vulnerability. Acceleration, media saturation, prosthetic extensions and surveillance blur the boundaries between organism and apparatus, producing new pathologies of perception, fragmented identity and political control that demand a reassessment of bodily autonomy and ethics in the technological age.
