The Revenge of the Real envisions a new positive biopolitics that recognises that how populations govern themselves is literally a matter of life and death. We are grappling with multiple interconnected dilemmas - climate change pandemics the tensions between the individual and society - all of which have to be addressed on a planetary scale. Even when separated we are still enmeshed. Can the world govern itself differently? If so what models and philosophies are needed? Bratton argues that instead of thinking of technology as something that happens to society we must see how it can form the basis of a politics of infrastructure knowledge and direct intervention. He urges us to reconsider questions of surveillance in the face of necessary testing and care. He asks what did the mask wars reveal about the destructive nature of individualism as the basis of sovereignty? The book proposes that it is time to transform how we live work and thrive. Rethinking governance means rethinking how we interact with each other as a global population and how we ensure our obligations to each other. For this we should build a society based in a new rationality of inclusion care and foresight.
