"Political Economy" of the body- Response to the 3rd qoute

“In the darkest region of the political field the condemned man represents the symmetrical , inverted figure of the king.” (29)

Basically, the condemned man is the servant/ slave of the king. He must obey and follow what the king tells him to do. If he doesn't respect the king's orders, there will be definite consequences. The condemned man must be symmetrical to the inverted figure of the king. For example he must follow what the king says.
