Abstract

The analyses in this essay are structured around the following questions: what kind of state are we dealing with in these tense political times? A selective human rights state? Times of a dismantled human rights state? Which market state, of capital reasserting itself? Which democratic traditions are being dismantled, and which authoritarian traditions are being reinstated? What forms of resistance are there to affirm a human rights state, which recognizes the others as they reaffirm their humanity? How do we resist the commodification of human beings?
