Abstract

In this paper the author considers the book Necropolitics, Racialization, and Global Capitalism. Historicization of Biopolitics and Forensics of Politics, Art, and Life (Lexington Books, Lanham 2014) by Marina Gržinić and Šefik Tatlić, and articulates the meaning that necropolitics, as an obscene form of politics that imposes and manages death, and racialization, as a contemporary form of Eurocentric white racism, have in historical development and modernization of global capitalism as an imperial formation. In that regard, the title of this essay, “Neonecronomicon”, not only detects neoliberalism as the mode of application of necrocapitalism, but it directly evokes constitutive connection between capitalism and colonialism.
