In‚ Life That Does Not Deserve to Live‚ Giorgio Agamben aims to expand on Michel Foucault’s concepts of ‘biopower’ and ‘biopolitics’‚ to express the way in which the state has power over society in the way that ‘bare life’ is produced. He uses the Latin term homo sacer – literally translated to ‘sacred man’ – to describe a life which can be “eliminated without punishment” ‚ one that possesses no value to the state and therefore can be terminated without the act being considered a crime.

If this is the case‚ then it is possible that reality can be affected by our memories.
