Empire and Underworld

- Captivity in French Guiana

Bag om Empire and Underworld

The French Revolution invented the notion of the citizen, but it also invented the noncitizen-the person whose rights were nonexistent. The South American outpost of Guiana became a depository for these outcasts of the new French citizenry, and an experimental space for the exercise of new kinds of power and violence against marginal groups.
