A Critical Theory of Police Power: The Fabrication of Social Order (Verso, 2021) offers a critical look at policing and the power of the state, examining the relationship between our ideas of order and wider social and political issues. First published in 2000, this new edition of Mark Neocleous' influential book features a new introduction which helpfully situates this ever-relevant text in the context of contemporary struggles over police and policing. Neocleous argues for an expanded concept of police, able to account for the range of institutions through which policing takes place. These institutions are concerned not just with the maintenance and reproduction of order, but with its very fabrication, especially the fabrication of a social order founded on wage labour. By situating the police power in relation to both capital and the state and at the heart of the politics of security, the book opens up into an understanding of the ways in which the state administers civil society and fabricates order through law and the ideology of crime. The discretionary violence of the police on the street is thereby connected to the wider administrative powers of the state, and the thud of the truncheon to the dull compulsion of economic relations. Content warning: the last 2 minutes of the interview include a brief discussion of Mark's current work on suicide. Listeners who enjoyed this interview may enjoy my recent interviews with Mark on his most recent book The Politics of Immunity, with undercover police ("Spycop") victims Helen Steel and Alison about Deep Deception, and with counterterrorism scholar Rizwaan Sabir about The Suspect. Mark Neocleous is Professor of the Critique of Political Economy at Brunel University in London, and is well-known for his work on police power and security. His recent books include The Universal Adversary: Security, Capital and 'The Enemies of All Mankind' (2016); War Power, Police Power (2014); and the newly-reissued A Critical Theory of Police Power: The Fabrication of Social Order (2021).

Our contemporary political condition is obsessed with immunity. The immunity of bodies and the body politic; personal immunity and herd immunity; how to immunize the social system against breakdown. The obsession intensifies with every new crisis and the mobilization of yet more powers of war and police, from quarantine to border closures and from vaccination certificates to immunological surveillance.  Engaging four key concepts with enormous cultural weight – Cell, Self, System and Sovereignty – The Politics of Immunity: Security and the Policing of Bodies (Verso, 2022) moves from philosophical biology to intellectual history and from critical theory to psychoanalysis to expose the politics underpinning the way immunity is imagined. At the heart of this imagination is the way security has come to dominate the whole realm of human experience. From biological cell to political subject, and from physiological system to the social body, immunity folds into security, just as security folds into immunity. The book thus opens into a critique of the violence of security and spells out immunity's tendency towards self-destruction and death: immunity, like security, can turn its aggression inwards, into the autoimmune disorder. Wide-ranging and polemical, this book lays down a major challenge to the ways in which the immunity of the self and the social are imagined. In this interview, I spoke with Mark Neocleous about his fascinating and wide-ranging book The Politics of Immunity.

Our contemporary political condition is obsessed with immunity. The immunity of bodies and the body politic; personal immunity and herd immunity; how to immunize the social system against breakdown. The obsession intensifies with every new crisis and the mobilization of yet more powers of war and police, from quarantine to border closures and from vaccination certificates to immunological surveillance.  Engaging four key concepts with enormous cultural weight – Cell, Self, System and Sovereignty – The Politics of Immunity: Security and the Policing of Bodies (Verso, 2022) moves from philosophical biology to intellectual history and from critical theory to psychoanalysis to expose the politics underpinning the way immunity is imagined. At the heart of this imagination is the way security has come to dominate the whole realm of human experience. From biological cell to political subject, and from physiological system to the social body, immunity folds into security, just as security folds into immunity. The book thus opens into a critique of the violence of security and spells out immunity's tendency towards self-destruction and death: immunity, like security, can turn its aggression inwards, into the autoimmune disorder. Wide-ranging and polemical, this book lays down a major challenge to the ways in which the immunity of the self and the social are imagined. In this interview, I spoke with Mark Neocleous about his fascinating and wide-ranging book The Politics of Immunity.

In this conversation for the Police Accountability Report podcast, PAR host Stephen Janis speaks with Neocleous about his book, the potential it has to transform the debate over the future of law enforcement, and how our unchecked policing system amounts to a radical form of state power that is both unnecessary and antithetical to democracy.

Johnson, artífice principal del piano stride neoyorquino. Poseedor de un virtuosismo reconocido por el propio Art Tatum como el origen de su estilo, y una de las mejores manos izquierdas que haya dado el piano jazzistico, Fats Waller no terminó nunca de tomarse demasiado en serio hacia si mismo y ello ocultaba el genio que llevaba dentro detrás de su oronda figura, su bigotito y su inseparable sombrero hongo. Waller grabó cientos de discos a piano sólo, al órgano, un instrumento que él introdujo en el jazz, y al frente de diferentes grupos donde menudeaban algunos fieles y eficaces cómplices, como el trompetista, Herman Autrey, el saxofonista, Gene Sedric o el guitarrista, Al Casey. Estas grabaciones se encuentran entre lo mejor de su carrera.

Kurt Rosenwinkel Jazz. El guitarrista de Filadelfia nos visita con su estilo heterogéneo y su impresionante técnica sobre el instrumento. Se inció en el mundo de la música a través del piano, que utiliza todavía ocasionalmente durante la composición, para luego a la edad de 12 años pasarse a la guitarra. Inicialmente su modo de improvisar fue influido por guitarristas como Pat Metheny y John Scofield, pero sucesivamente ha emergido su estilo personal con un fraseo suelto y lineal, parecido al de músicos de los años 40 y 50 como Lennie Tristano. Su lenguaje musical y sus acordes son muy complejos y avanzados, inspirados también por artistas como George Van Eps y Ben Monder. Asistió a la Berklee School of Music durante dos años y medio antes de abandonarla para hacer giras con Gary Burton, por aquel entonces uno de los "grandes" del jazz. Seguidamente, se trasladó a Brooklyn donde continuó madurando y se convierte en uno de los guitarristas de más relieve de su generación tocando con 'The Human Feel', 'Paul Motian's Electric Bebop Band', 'Joe Henderson Group', y el 'Brian Blade Fellowship'. En el 1995 recibió el premio 'Composer's Award'; del National Endowment for the Arts y firma con Verve Records. Desde entonces ha tocado y registrado ya sea como líder o como acompañante con artistas del calibre de Mark Turner, Brad Mehldau, Joshua Redman, Chris Potter, Jeff Ballard, Eric Harland, Aaron Parks, Seamus Blake, Jason Lindner, Danilo Pérez, Aaron Goldberg y muchos otros. Su álbum de 2005, 'Deep Song' (2005), tiene también la participación de Mehldau y Joshua Redman. Entre sus álbumes dignos de nota encontramos 'The Enemies of Energy', 'The Next Step' y el más experimental 'Heartcore'. En el 2012 se ha publicado el doble álbum 'Star Of Jupiter', con Aaron Parks al piano, Eric Revis al contrabajo y Justin Faulkner a la batería. En 2014 pone en marcha su último proyecto, el trío 'Bandit 65', formado por el propio Rosenwinkel, el también guitarrista Tim Motzer y el baterista Gintas Janusonis, que revisa algunos aspectos de la psicodelia de los años sesenta del siglo pasado. Un sorprendente paisaje sonoro creado con impactantes improvisaciones y algo de electrónica, jugando con la estética vibrante de la década prodigiosa.
