The Implications of Immanence develops a philosophy of life in opposition to the notion of ?bio-power, ? which reduces the human to the question of power over what Giorgio Agamben terms ?bare life, ? mere biological existence. Breaking with all biologism or vitalism, Lawlor attends to the dispersion of death at the heart of life, in the ?minuscule hiatus? that divides the living present, separating lived experience from the living body and, crucially for phenomenology, inserting a blind spot into a visual field.
