Sumario:Using terms specific to Achille Mbembe's thought - especially the concepts of necropolitics, brutalism, and earthly community - my analysis brings together political philosophy, ecology, technology, anthropology, and metaphysics.

It also highlights the "ethics of the passerby" and the constellation of terms related to it: the universal hospitality, the era of the earth, symbiosis, and the politics of a planetary age.
