| description | Walter Benjamin’s research led him to reflect on the state of exception, even if his uses of the concept remain little known. Beginning with Ursprung des deutschen Trauerspiels, in which he drew on classical theories of exception, Benjamin's position changed and, with his 1940 theses Über den Begriff der Geschichte, he achieved a theoretical framework with which to interpret all the states of exception that exist or have existed. He establishes a dichotomy between the state of exception-as-rule, under which he subsumes all modern exceptions, and the true state of exception, as a potential solution to contemporary historical, political, and structural problems. The article traces this path and asks whether this model can be applied today. |
