ABSTRACT
Centrally located within Agamben’s affirmative politics against any form of voluntarist project is the concept of inoperativity (inoperosità). As we saw in earlier chapters, the happy end of Agamben’s politics does not consist of the teleological fulfilment of a process, or the destruction of an object, but rather in rendering something inoperative, neutralizing its forces, deactivating its functioning and making it available for free use. “Happy life is made possible by neutralizing the possible apparatuses of power to which we are subjected, including our own identities formed within them” (Pozorov, 2014: 31).
