Facundo C. Rocca

Postdoctoral fellow at the Laboratorio de Investigación en Ciencias Humanas (CONICET/UNSAM)

Facundo C. Rocca graduated in Political Science from the Universidad de Buenos Aires in Argentina and holds a PhD in Philosophy from the Universidad Nacional de San Martín (UNSAM) and the Université Paris 8. He currently works as a postdoctoral fellow at the Laboratorio de Investigación en Ciencias Humanas (CONICET/UNSAM). His research lies at the intersection of the conceptual history of modern political thought, focusing especially on the concepts of law and rights, the history of marxian thought, and the critical theories of rights and citizenship posited by postcolonial, feminist and queer studies. He is also a member of BIOS, a transdisciplinary research collective on subaltern biopolitics, biological techno-feminisms and post-dualist critical theory. As part of this collective project he has recently published two essays that discusses the notion of a biopolitics from below: “Apuntes para una biopolítica desde abajo” and “Una genealogía tecno-feminista de las biopolíticas subalternas”.
