Central to this analysis is the growing production of surplus populations whose lives are increasingly organized through precarity, exclusion, and differentiated forms of social incorporation. The book further develops the concept of the neoliberal state of exception to explain how legal and political protections are selectively restricted, suspended, or conditionalized. By connecting accumulation, governance, and social reproduction within a unified framework, it offers a powerful new interpretation of contemporary capitalism and its contradictions\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDionysis Asimiadis\u003c\/strong\u003e is a Phd candidate at Aristotle University of Thessaloniki.
