The current situation in the United States of America is that Latin immigrants and migrants are mistreated and subjected to gross human rights violations with entire extensions of the Nation-State being given virtually unlimited power over a powerless populace. The current gap in the literature revolves around Agamben and political theology as it relates and overlaps with the political reality of Latin American immigrants and migrants being mistreated and subjected to human rights violations with impunity. This research is very important to allow a path to resist nation states when they collapse into authoritarianism or oppress humans without the territory of the nation state in question. This will provide a way to assist Latin immigrants and migrants without fear of a revolution that will dissolve tyranny as happens so often How can political theory of Agamben's use of Walter Benjamin's critique of violence establish a new way of assuring Latin migrants and immigrants' safety and dignity as human beings who should be allowed to live anywhere, they please as long as they are not harming anyone. My research objective is to show how Benjamin's notion of divine violence combined with that of Agamben's notion of destituent power can provide a way to break out of the dialectic of tyrannies that collapse in revolution to birth yet a new regime of tyrannies.
