What is an Apparatus? Agamben's Conceptual Analysis of 'Dispositif'

What is a dispositif? Translated into English as “apparatus”,
this term plays a crucial role in Foucault’s thought. In this
episode, we explore Agamben’s genealogical treatment of this
Foucauldian notion. His treatment takes him across Christian
theology, Hegel, and more. Joining Craig, Adam, and Will is Yung
Agamben from the D E C O D E podcast. Our goal is to understand
how Agamben’s description of how apparatuses operate within
Foucault’s work, and how they function strategically to direct
the formation of particular subjectivities. How can one bring the
“Ungovernable” to light?
