They show how drones generate particular ways of visualizing the spaces and targets of war while acting as tools to exercise state power. Essays include discussions of the legal justifications of extrajudicial killings and how US drone strikes in the Horn of Africa impact life on the ground, as well as a personal narrative of a former drone operator. The contributors also explore drone warfare in relation to sovereignty, governance, and social difference; provide accounts of the relationships between drone technologies and modes of perception and mediation; and theorize drones' relation to biopolitics, robotics, automation, and art. Interdisciplinary and timely, \u003ci\u003eLife in the Age of Drone Warfare\u003c\/i\u003e extends the critical study of drones while expanding the public discussion of one of our era's most ubiquitous instruments of war. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eContributors.
