Mbembe contends that in modern societies, power possesses the ability to determine who may live and who must die, resulting in conditions where certain populations endure a form of living death. This power is wielded not only through direct acts of violence or killing but also by managing, controlling, and limiting life. Spaces of pollution, following Mbembe’s ideas can be considered important sites of contemporary cruelty and letting die.
