520 | |a This article reconceptualizes military drones by drawing on early-modern debates about the sanctity of political power. Ian Shaw has claimed that the proliferation and automation of drones threatens to subject humanity to a robotic regime of control, which he describes as the ultimate instantiation of Thomas Hobbes's artificial sovereignty. I argue instead that the United States' drone strategy is closely informed by a liberal political theology that can be traced back to Hobbes's seventeenth- and eighteenth-century opponents, Samuel Clarke and Nehemiah Grew. These physico-theologians held that constitutionally balanced polities such as Britain were important vessels for divine providence. Today, a parallel faith that the United States represents humanity's best hope is used to justify the extralegal and secretive bombing of territories that are deemed to be profane in comparison with America. Hobbes's demystification of politics in Leviathan provides the platform for a critique of this modern form of liberal enchantment. | ||
