- Abstract: Focusing on the construction of Lamu Port as a focal point of the Lamu Port–South Sudan–Ethiopia Transport (LAPSSET) Corridor in Kenya, this article explores how megainfrastructures are entangled with processes of life-making and -unmaking, thus producing specific subject dispositions within a state's infrastructural biopolitics as infrastructure-based capacitation and control of national populations. Analyzing sociopolitical effects of state-led megaprojects, civil society mobilization, and livelihoods of artisanal fishermen, the article develops a theoretical account of a politics of disavowal—a tacit denial of a state-admitted responsibility and support to vulnerable populations that, despite formal inclusion into the state's development visions, are rendered constitutively absent within biopolitical spatialities of life advanced by the state. Thereby, the article triangulates the binary of bio- and necropolitics standardly deployed in multiple theorizations of (re)production of liberal capitalist life in geographical and interdisciplinary literatures on biopolitics, necropolitics, or politics of infrastructure. It specifically foregrounds how governance of vulnerable, expendable populations does not oscillate between intentional life- and death-making, flourishing and effacement, bio and necro but unfolds as a politics of disavowal—a confluence of formal recognition and material neglect by the state, expressed as a dialectic of presence and absence, inclusion and neglect.

- Abstract: Centrándose en la construcción del Puerto de Lamu como punto focal del Corredor de Transporte Puerto Lamu–Sudán del Sur–Etiopía (LAPSSET), en Kenia, este artículo explora el modo como las megainfraestructuras se entrelazan con los procesos de creación y obliteración de la vida, produciendo así disposiciones específicas de los sujetos dentro de una biopolítica infraestructural del Estado, como capacitación basada en la infraestructura y el control de las poblaciones nacionales. Analizando los efectos sociopolíticos de megaproyectos de responsabilidad estatal, la movilización de la sociedad civil y los medios de vida de los pescadores artesanales, el artículo desarrolla una explicación teórica de una política de desautorización –una tácita negación de la responsabilidad y el apoyo a las poblaciones vulnerables admitidos por el Estado que, pese a la inclusión formal en las visiones desarrollistas del Estado, se perciben constitutivamente ausentes dentro de las espacialidades biopolíticas de la vida alentadas por el Estado. Entonces, el artículo triangula el binario de la bio- y la necro-política, que es habitualmente desplegado en las múltiples teorizaciones de la (re)producción de la vida capitalista liberal en las literaturas geográficas e interdisciplinarias sobre biopolítica, necropolítica o políticas de la infraestructura. Específicamente, relieva que la gobernanza de poblaciones vulnerables y prescindibles no oscila entre la intencionalidad de generar vida y muerte, el florecimiento y la supresión, bio y necro, sino que se desenvuelve como una política negacionista –una confluencia de reconocimiento formal y desestimación material por el Estado, expresada como una dialéctica de presencia y ausencia, inclusión y abandono.

- Abstract: 本文聚焦肯尼亚拉穆港—南苏丹—埃塞俄比亚运输(LAPSSET)走廊的拉穆港建设, 探讨了大型基础设施如何与创造和毁灭生命的过程交织在一起, 在国家基础设施生物政治中产生了独特的主体安置, 并以此作为基于基础设施的能力培养和国家人口控制的方式。本文分析了国家大型项目、民间社会动员和个体渔民生活的社会政治影响, 从理论上解释了"否认政治学":尽管国家将弱势群体正式纳入发展规划, 却无声地否认了国家承诺的对弱势群体的责任和支持, 在国家推动的生命生物政治空间中形成结构性缺失。因此, 本文对生物政治学和死亡政治学的二元关系进行调节。在关于生物政治学、死亡政治学、基础设施政治学的地理学和跨学科文献中, 这种二元关系常见于自由资本主义生命(再)生产的多重理论中。它明确指出, 弱势可牺牲人口的治理, 不是摇摆于有意识的生与死、繁荣与消亡、生物与死亡之间, 而是国家正式承认与事实忽视相结合的否认政治学, 辩证地表现为存在与消失、包含与忽视。 [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
