Sandro Mezzadra teaches political theory at the University of Bologna and is adjunct fellow at the Institute for Culture and Society of the University of Western Sydney. In the last decade his work has particularly centered on the relations between globalization, migration and citizenship as well as on postcolonial theory and criticism. He is an active participant in the 'post-workerist' debate and one of the founders of the UniNomade network (http://uninomade.org/). Julian Reid is Professor of International Politics at the University of Lapland in Finland. Prior to that he taught at King‘s College London, the University of Sussex, and the School of Oriental and African Studies, University of London. He has written extensively on the biopolitics of war and security in the modern age, and is the author of two monographs, The Biopolitics of the War on Terror (Manchester University Press, 2006) and The Liberal Way of War (with Michael Dillon) (Routledge, 2009). He is also co-editor (with Brad Evans) of a new edited volume, Deleuze and Fascism (Routledge, 2012). Ranabir Samaddar is Director of the Calcutta Research Group. He has pioneered along with others peace studies programmes in South Asia. He has worked extensively on issues of justice and rights in the context of conflicts in South Asia. The much-acclaimed The Politics of Dialogue (2004) was the culmination of his work on justice, rights, and peace. His particular research has been on migration and refugee studies, the theory and practices of dialogue, nationalism and post-colonial statehood in South Asia, and new regimes of technological restructuring and labour control. His recent political writings, published in the form of a two-volume account, The Materiality of Politics (Anthem Press, 2007), and The Emergence of the Political Subject (Sage, 2009), have challenged some of the prevailing accounts of the birth of nationalism and the nation state, and have signalled a new turn incritical postcolonial thinking.
