İmparatorluk Nostaljisi: Michael Hardt ve Antonıo Negrı’de Egemenlik ve İmparatorluk

Abstract

The empires, which emerged as a hegemonic and imperial power throughout history, have played a crucial role in shaping world politics and geography, and being the creators and guardians of an order they created against chaos and despite they left their powers to nation-states with the twentieth century, they continued to fulfill their historical missions. Even when compared to the empire, despite the sovereignty of the nation-state today, it can be said that the dynamics that shape the world we live in are imperial policies and imperial cultures. The article will focus on two main issues based on the historical/sociological facts. First, it will be argued that world history is actually a history of empires and that the imperial logic continues to create the foundations of today's global politics. Secondly, especially in recent years, as debated in the academic community by particularly Michael Hardt and Antonio Negri, will be dealt with the idea of the new empire, which is characterized by the implementation and is embodied specifically in the US as a power mechanism, with no outsides basically exceeding the classical imperialism, independent of time and space, peaceful with the bio-power.
