Synthetic biology attempts to redesign entire species and intervenes in the human germline with CRISPR. Martin Müller problematizes the technologies and discourses of this Promethean biology and situates them in a critical genealogy of zoëpolitics, in which the "vivification of power" around 1800 and the "molecular revolution" of the 20th century appear as previous stages of escalation in a turbulent history of the "will to make life".
