Description
Bringing together new essays by the leading figures in contemporary radical philosophy, this provocative collection defines for the first time the boundaries and accomplishments of a body of work deeply critical of both the philosophical and social dimensions of domination. The contributors draw on diverse traditions and movements, including feminism, critical theory, Marxism, deconstruction, democratic socialism, theories of race and ethnicity, deep ecology, and politicized spirituality. Author note: Roger S. Gottlieb is Professor of Philosophy at Worcester Polytechnic Institute. He has published five other books, including "History and Subjectivity: The Transformation of Marxist Theory (Temple)".
